PC owners need fairly burly systems to play Wolfenstein: The New Order the way it was meant to be played, according to Bethesda. The publisher detailed system requirements for MachineGames’ soon-to-be-released shooter, but went on to say they’re the specs “to deliver the PC game as it was intended to be experienced.” So, while the specs are listed as “system requirements,” Bethesda stopped short of calling them “minimum” requirements.
Make of that what you will. Anyway, the specs in full are:
- 64-bit Windows 7/Windows 8
- Intel Core i7 or equivalent
- AMD4 GB System RAM
- 50GB free HDD space
- GeForce 460, ATI Radeon HD 6850
- High Speed Internet Connection
- Steam account and activation required
As for the consoles, PS4 and Xbox One owners need 47GB free for installs, while it’s 8GB for installs on Xbox 360 and PS3 – that goes up to 17GB for a PSN download. The New Order remains primed for launch on May 20, when players will see the return of steely hero B.J. Blazkowicz, but in an alternate reality where the Nazis won the war.
