    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 PC System Requirements Might Make PC Users Upgrade

    The official S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 pc system requirements have been revealed, which might make PC users want to upgrade their rigs after reading them.

    Game developer GSC Game World previously released a new gameplay trailer for its upcoming shooter but at that time only a few details were shared. Today, new information got released which included the PC system requirements and the various editions fans and new players can preorder.

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 PC System Requirement is Heavy

    First up are the PC system requirements that might make the average PC gamer rethink buying or installing it before getting an upgrade. While the minimum requirements are not that bad with the processor only needing Intel Core i5-7600K and the memory being only 8 GB, the disc space required is where they might get hesitant. The game needs AT LEAST 150 GB and while it did not specify it would require the type, it seems GSC Game World is totally recommending PC players to use SSD-type storage.

    Why the specific type of storage? From what we can get from this list, it seems the size of the resources are quite large that it needs fast processing and an SSD would do that easily.

    Min and Recommended Specs

    For the rest of the PC system requirements, check them out below:

    SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

    MINIMUM:

    • OS: Windows 10
    • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X / Intel Core i5-7600K
    • Memory: 8 GB RAM
    • Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
    • Storage: 150 GB available space
    • Additional Notes: SSD

    RECOMMENDED:

    • OS: Windows 10
    • Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X / Intel Core i7-9700K
    • Memory: 16 GB RAM
    • Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB / NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8GB / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB
    • Storage: 150 GB available space
    • Additional Notes: SSD

    Rethink and Upgrade

    So before you want to purchase the game on PC, get a new storage device and it should be an SSD. Anything less might not give you the best game experience.

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Heart of Chornobyl launches later this year on Xbox Series X/S and PC via Epic Games, GOG.com, Steam, and Windows.
