The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered is less than two weeks from launching on PC, but what kind of hardware will you need to run it? Naughty Dog, Nixxes and Iron Galaxy Studios have outlined various presets, including the expected frame rates and resolutions.
An Intel Core i3-8100 or AMD Ryzen 3 1300X, GeForce GTX 1650 or Radeon RX 5500XT, and 16 GB RAM are required for 720p/30 FPS at Low settings. Recommended requirements include a Core i5-8600 or Ryzen 5 3600, an RTX 3060 or Radeon RX 5700, and 16 GB RAM for 1080p/60 FPS at Medium settings.
High requirements, which deliver 1440p/60 FPS at High settings, necessitate a Core i7-9700K or Ryzen 7 3700X, an RTX 3070 or a Radeon RX 6800, and 16 GB of RAM. Finally, running the game in 4K at 60 FPS and Very High settings requires a Core i7-11700 or a Ryzen 7 5700X CPU, an RTX 4080 or RX 7900XT and 32 GB RAM. A whopping 150 GB of installation space and a solid-state drive are also mandatory.
Settings should be flexible with various upscalers like DLSS 3 and FSR 4 available. However, given how Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 launched with reports of performance issues, time will tell.
The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered launches on April 3rd for PC. Check out its various features and options here.
