Following several delays, Wētā Workshop’s Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of The Rings Game is finally launching on July 29th. Things are seemingly on track as its Steam page has been updated with minimum and recommended requirements for PC players.
Suffice it to say, they’re fairly manageable, at least on the lower end. At the very minimum, you need an Intel Core i5-7600K or AMD Ryzen 3 1200, 16 GB RAM and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 (4 GB), an AMD Radeon R9 270X (4 GB) or an Intel Arc A580 (8 GB) for 1080p/30 FPS at Very Low settings.
The recommended requirements include a Core i5-10600 or Ryzen 5 8400F, 16 GB RAM, and a GeForce RTX 3060 Ti (8 GB) or Radeon RX 6750 XT (12 GB) for 1080p/60 FPS at High settings. Of course, the requirements for 1440p and 4K resolution alongside the highest settings have yet to be revealed. But at least you’ll only need three GB of installation space, which is impressive.
Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of The Rings Game will also be launching for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch. Stay tuned for more updates in the coming weeks.
