Below are the full minimum specs:

  • Processor: Intel Core i5 8400 or AMD Ryzen 3 3300X
  • Memory: 12GB RAM
  • Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 1060 3GB or AMD Radeon RX 580 4GB
  • DirectX: 12
  • Storage: 60GB

And the recommended specs:

  • Processor: Intel Core i7 8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
  • Memory: 16GB RAM
  • Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 1070 8GB or AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 8GB
  • DirectX: 12
  • Storage: 60GB

As Vikki previously pointed out, the minimum requirements do feel a bit steep for a lot of PC setups. Many responses to the official tweet feel similarly.

Still, it's clear From Software wants PC players to have an experience more akin to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S releases than on previous generations.

Elden Ring is due for release on 25th February across PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and PC. Check out Aoife's six hours with the game here.
