What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5 2310 2.9 GHz / AMD FX-6300, 4 GB RAM and GTX 550 Ti 1GB/ Radeon 6950 1GB or better. 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 8GB. 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
RiME launched on 26 May 2017, within three weeks of Injustice 2, Tekken 7, WipEout Omega Collection and WipEout: Omega Collection. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 4 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Injustice 2, Tekken 7, WipEout Omega Collection, WipEout: Omega Collection.
