Bethesda has recently released the official Starfield system requirements and the list seems to focus more on RAM and storage size.
Starfield System Requirements Heavy on Two Hardware
Starfield is a really ambitious game with the whole universe as its playground so players might be wondering will its PC system requirements be as large as well that it might be difficult to play. Fortunately, this is not the case at all because most of the specifications are not that heavy, well, except for two: storage space and RAM.
SSD Era is Here
Just like in other triple A games this year, storage will need at least an SSD to make it run. Since the game’s size is quite colossal, 125GB, an SSD is quite sensible. Aside from that, the RAM needed will be 16GB. Gone are the days when 12GB RAM is the minimum because it is all about 16GB.
