The Resident Evil Requiem PC requirements have been announced a few days ahead of the February 27 launch. Both the minimum and recommended specifications are relatively low.
This means that even older systems will be able to run the survival horror game. According to the published data, expensive hardware upgrades are not absolutely necessary.
Minimum requirements for Resident Evil Requiem
First, the game requires a 64-bit operating system. Windows 11 is supported in the 64-bit version.
The minimum processor requirement is an Intel Core i5 8500 or AMD Ryzen 5 3500. In addition, 16 GB of RAM is required.
The list specifies a GeForce GTX 1660 with 6 GB or a Radeon RX 5500 XT with 8 GB as the graphics card. DirectX 12 is also required.
Recommended PC specifications
For better performance, Capcom also recommends Windows 11 64-bit. An Intel Core i7 8700 or AMD Ryzen 5 5500 processor is specified.
Here, too, 16 GB of RAM remains mandatory. The recommended graphics card is a GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 8 GB or a Radeon RX 6600 with 8 GB.

16 GB RAM as a possible bottleneck
