Here are the Shadow Warrior 3 System Requirements that have been revealed through Steam.
Previous entries in the series have been received positively from both fans and critics. The title is coming to current, and last-gen consoles and is the best looking entry yet.

Shadow Warrior 3 Recommended Requirements
- Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
- OS: Windows 10
- Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 2700 (8 * 3200) or equivalent. Intel Core i7-6950X (10 * 3000) or equivalent.

These requirements are fairly detailed, and give us a very good idea of what to expect. Both target the 1080p resolution, and you should have a good idea of where you stand.
If you aim to play the game at higher settings with 60 FPS in mind, you will need something like a GTX 1080 paired with an i7-6950X. The game is definitely demanding, but based on the footage we have seen so far, the requirements do make a lot of sense.
However, if you are looking to target 30 FPS at the same resolution, you’ll need a GPU with 2 GB of VRAM, like the R7 260X. When it comes to the storage requirements, you are looking at a total of 31 GB.
Windows 7 users will be glad to know that the OS is indeed supported, and you don’t need Windows 10 to run the title.
