Not surprisingly, the technical demands for Battlefield 2042 are on a higher level. According to a leak, EA’s shooter is very demanding, insofar as the recommended system requirements are to be adhered to.

The insider Tom Henderson published the system requirements of the alpha version of Battlefield 2042 via Twitter on Tuesday. The leak points to an upscale PC standard to play the shooter under ideal conditions.

Minimum PC requirements for Battlefield 2042:

– Operating system: 64-bit Windows 10
– Processor (AMD): AMD FX-8350
– Processor (Intel): Core i5 6600K
– Memory: 8GB
– Video Memory: 4GB
– Graphics card (AMD): AMD Radeon RX 560
– Graphics card (NVIDIA): Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
– DirectX: 12
– Online connection requirements: 512 KBPS or faster

Recommended PC settings for Battlefield 2042:

– Operating system: 64-bit Windows 10
– Processor (AMD): AMD Ryzen 5 3600
– Processor (Intel): Intel Core i7 4790
– Memory: 16GB
– Video Memory: 8GB
– Graphics card (AMD): AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT
– Graphics card (NVIDIA): Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060
– DirectX: 12
– Online connection requirements: 512 KBPS or faster

The visual demands are anything but surprising for the futuristic shooter. Customers currently have to pay just under 500 euros for graphics cards like the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 alone. But if you only want to meet the minimum requirements, you can get by with about 200 euros for a graphics card.

The alpha phase of Battlefield 2042 is to take place from 12 to 16 August. EA has not yet released any information of the PC requirements for the shooter, which will be officially released on 22 October this year. However, the leaker Henderson is considered a reliable informant who has already correctly predicted earlier details about Battlefield 2042.
