Minimum PC Specifications:

  • OS: Windows 7/8/10 64 bit

  • Memory: 6GB
  • Graphics: Nvidia GTX 470 / AMD 7240 (DirectX11 functionality required)

Recommended  PC Specifications:

  • OS: Windows 7/8/10 64 bit
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-3770K Quad Core CPU or better / AMD FX 4350 Quad Core CPU or better
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  •  Graphics: Nvidia GTX 770 / AMD Radeon R9 280X or better

I shouldn’t think current players will have an issue with any of these but they have both increased slightly since the original game launched with the minimum requirements now 6GB of RAM instead of 4GB and obviously the grpahics cards have changed now there are newer cards on the market.

Frontier will also be releasing the VR and 4K recommended specifications soon.
