Is your PC up to the challenge?
Bethesda and MachineGames will be launching Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus in less than a week and you’ll need to make sure that your rig has what it takes to stand up to the fascist punks. The the folks over at PCGamer are BJ-enthusiasts just like us and have managed to get the scoop on the hardware required to help Mr. Blazkowicz eliminate the Nazi scum infesting this great land.

That's a bit more steep compared to DooM's system requirements especially on the RAM front (16GB compared to 8GB)

Welp, I guess I wont be running this in 4k.

Blow the dust off, crank the voltage and set that shit to 5.0Ghz. The best processor ever deserves a proper send off.

Hope my 970 can still pull its weight

Vulkan API 100% confirmed! \m/ YES!
“We’re also taking full advantage of Vulkan, allowing us to push improved performance across the board in ways that simply weren’t possible before. The minimum hardware requirements are set to ensure a high-quality experience, and with Vulkan players should see solid performance on a variety of system configurations. However, if you’re aiming for 1080p with high framerate and settings, you would need to bump towards our recommended specs.”
\m/ My body is READY! \m/ :) -
Bet my phenom can still run it.

Remember that the Switch version isn’t out until like next year. I’m liking the idea of Bethesda’s games on the Switch but they’re absolutely going to be inferior experiences. The Xbox/PS4 are inferior experiences. If you’ve got the PC for it go PC. Next year if you want to play it again on the go get it for the Switch. -

PC. If the game is a graphical powerhouse or in a PC-centric genre, PC.
Switch for almost everything else.

Looking forward to killing the fuck out of Nazi shitbags!

My Coffee is ready!

Praying for 60fps at 1080p, on High settings with a 970. That's all I need, baby!
