Hellblade Will Need An ‘Absolute Beast’ Of A PC To Run At 4K and 60FPS

We already know that the PC version of Hellblade will allegedly support uncapped framerates, and resolutions as high as 4K. However, don’t get too excited at the prospect of some sweet 4K and 60fps action- as it turns out, the game will need some exceptionally high end hardware to run at those levels, at least if Ninja Theory is to be believed.

“You would need an absolute beast to do 4k at 60. We don’t have recommended specs for PC yet but we will release these when we know,” Ninja Theory co-founder and Hellblade Creative Director Tameem Antoniades told WCCFTech in an interview.

Certainly, the game looks good enough that it seems as though you might need some powerful hardware to be able to max it out. That said, the exact extent of the specs needed to run this game at a level of visuals this high can’t be guessed until we have the recommended specs for the PC version of the game. As of right now, the minimum specs for the game are posted on the game’s Steam page, but that’s all we have.

Hellblade will launch on PC and PS4 on August 8.
