What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for i5, 4 GB RAM and Nvidia GTX 570. At 4GB 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. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Mekazoo launched on 14 November 2016, within three weeks of Dishonored 2, Final Fantasy XV, 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, Final Fantasy XV, Titanfall 2, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition.
