Before you take the plunge into this wild world of hunting monsters and players, it’s a good idea to make sure your PC is up to scratch with the system requirements, because it can be quite demanding.
In the event you weren’t playing video games in 2008, you might not know about Crytek’s previous PC-melting game, Crysis, and now all these years later, the CryEngine is pushing gamer’s PCs to the limits once again with the Hunt: Showdown 1896 PC system requirments.
It’s worth noting that both the Minimum and Recommended system requirements for Hunt: Showdown 1896 require a 64-bit processor and operating system, so if you’re running 32-bit, you’re out of luck.
