Back in 2014, Ubisoft and Obsidian Studios released South Park: The Stick of Truth to consoles and PC. It combined some light, party-based RPG gameplay with sharp writing from the South Park creators to arguably form the finest video game ever based on a licensed property. Naturally, a sequel was quickly planned, though it was announced that Ubisoft San Francisco would be replacing Obsidian for development. South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone continued to be fully involved in the production, despite the development studio swap.

The sequel, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, will finally be releasing on current gen consoles and PC October 17th following a year of shifting release dates. Today Ubisoft revealed the minimum and recommended system requirements for the PC version of the game.
