PC Requirements For Skyrim VR Announced

You won't need the power of dragons to run Skyrim VR

The next of the many Bethesda VR projects to come to PC gamers, Skyrim VR once again transports players to the vast open world and puts them right in the shoes of the Dovakin, with all the base game content as well as the expansions. This marks the seventh unique time that Skyrim has been released.

Available now for Steam users with an HTC Vive for a humble $59.99, Skyrim VR follows on from the releases of DOOM VFR and Fallout 4 VR on PC. While the system requirements for Skyrim VR aren’t quite as demanding as those of DOOM and Fallout, let’s be honest, if you’ve got the HTC Vive, you’re probably not worried about system requirements anyway.

A full rundown of the requirements is just below, but users should have at minimum an NVIDIA GeForce 1070, AMD RX Vega 56 GPU, an i7-4790 processor and 8GB of RAM for the best experience once again getting lost in the world of Skyrim.

  • OS: Windows 7/8.1/10 (64-bit versions)
  • Processor: Intel Core i5-6600K or AMD Ryzen 5 1400 or better
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 970/AMD RX 480 8GB or better
