What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for 2.0 GHz Intel or equivalent AMD dual-core processor, 2 GB RAM and Nvidia Geforce GTS 450 Series, AMD Radeon HD 6770 graphics card or better (min 1GB VRAM). At 2GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 6GB.
What it launched against
Farming Simulator 17 launched on 25 October 2016, within three weeks of Dishonored 2, Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 3 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Dishonored 2, Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition.
