Following its reveal and removal of the minimum system requirements for Elden Ring on PC, FromSoftware has finally confirmed the minimum and recommended requirements for the platform. Shock of shocks – the initially revealed minimum configuration was correct.
You will indeed need an Intel Core-i5 8400 or AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, 12 GB of RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce 1060 3 GB or AMD Radeon RX 580 4 GB. By comparison, recommended requirements include an Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600K, 16 GB RAM, and a GeForce GTX 1070 or Radeon RX Vega 56 with 8 GB VRAM. In both cases, DirectX 12 and 60 GB of installation space is required.
While this aren’t the heftiest requirements compared to, say, Dying Light 2 Stay Human, they’re still higher than Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice or Dark Souls 3. Obviously, we’ll have to wait and see how the optimization pans out so stay tuned. Elden Ring is out on February 25th for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC.
