Starfield’s recent gameplay demonstration made it abundantly clear that it’s going to be a ridiculously massive game, even by Bethesda Game Studios standards. Unsurprisingly, that’s reflected in the system requirements for the upcoming space-faring RPG’s PC versions as well.
Courtesy of Starfield’s updated Steam page, its minimum and recommended requirements for PC have been revealed, and they’re quite hefty, with an SSD, a 16 GB RAM, and at least 125 GB of storage space being required on either of the two settings.
Meanwhile, on minimum specs, you’ll also need either a Ryzen 5 2600X or an i7-6800K, along with either a Radeon RX 5700 or a GeForce GTX 1070 Ti. On recommended settings, on the other hand, you’ll need either a Ryzen 5 3600X or an i5-10600K, along wit either a Radeon RX 6800 XT or a GeForce RTX 2080.
Meanwhile, if you’re planning on playing Starfield on a console, Bethesda has confirmed that the game will run at 4K/30 FPS on Xbox Series X and 1440p/30 FPS on Xbox Series S.
Starfield launches on September 6. Check out its newest trailer through here.
