What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel® Core™ i5-4670 / AMD FX-9590, 8 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 / AMD Radeon R7 360. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 12GB. 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
Red Dead Redemption launched on 17 August 2023, within three weeks of Starfield, Baldur's Gate III, Baldur's Gate III and Overwatch. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 3 years into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Starfield, Baldur's Gate III, Baldur's Gate III, Overwatch.
