Recommended PC and Mac System Requirements - Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire
Wondering if your machine has enough grunt to run Deadfire? Check out the full PC and Mac system requirements for Pillars of Eternity 2.
One of the best parts about modern games that stick to old-school presentation is that players won't need an ultra-modern machine in order to play them. Pillars of Eternity was one such game, and the team at Obsidian Entertainment have gone down a similar path for follow-up title Deadfire. Make no mistake, the game is gorgeous; however, it still doesn't take much machine muscle to get the most out of its visual charm. Here's a look at the various PC and Mac minimum and recommended requirements for Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire.
Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire System Requirements
The system requirements for Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire are nearly the same as with the previous Pillars of Eternity release — a deliberate move on the part of Obsidian, who stated on the game's Fig page that players won't need a more powerful computer to reach the same levels of performance when compared to the previous entry. Gamers with moderately old systems shouldn't have any problems running the title so long as they hit the minimum requirements listed; players with hardware from the last couple of years should find that the game runs acceptably well at maxed settings.
