Ubsioft’s Watch Dogs has leaked ahead of its worldwide release and users have been streaming footage all over the place. Some users who got their hands on the PC version managed to confirm one important facet though: you won’t need 6 GB of RAM to play Watch Dogs as the system requirements state.

This was further corroborated by creative director Jonathan Morin on Twitter, who stated that, “4GB is lower then min specs. It might run if nothing else is running, but when it swap to your hard drive it will lag.”

So if you’re worried that the game is locked to run at 6 GB of RAM, you can rest easy.

Watch Dogs will be out on May 27th for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4 and PC. We already found out that the world map is comparable to that of Grand Theft Auto 4. Will you be picking it up? Let us know in the comments.
