Aliens: Dark Descent is an upcoming squad-based tactical strategy game from Tindalos Interactive and Focus Entertainment. The title finally has a release date of June 2023, and we now have more technical details about the PC version officially shared by the developers. Here are the Aliens Dark Descent system requirements for the upcoming title.
Aliens Dark Descent System Requirements
| Minimum | Recommended | |
|---|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 or 11 64-bit | Windows 10 or 11 64-bit |
| Processor | AMD FX-6300 / Intel Core i3-6100 | AMD Ryzen 7 1800X / Intel Core i7-9700K |
| Memory | 8 GB | 16 GB |
| Graphics | 3 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon R9 380 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 | 6 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT / NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 |
| DirectX | Version 12 | Version 12 |
| Storage | 60 GB available space | 60 GB available space |
| Target Resolution and FPS | 30 FPS, 1920×1080 in low | 60 FPS, 1920×1080 in epic. SSD Recommended |
The developers have also shared the target resolution and framerate with these requirements, which is always a plus. If you’re looking to play the title at 1080p and want 60 FPS with the Epic preset, you’ll need something like an RTX 2060 with 6 GB of VRAM paired with a Ryzen 7 1800X.
This isn’t a very demanding title, but if you’re looking to play at the lower settings at 30 FPS, you can get by with a fairly old GTX 960 with just 3 GB of VRAM. You need a total of 60 GB to install the game, and like a lot of modern PC titles, 16 GB of RAM is recommended. An SSD is also recommended if you’re looking to play at higher settings.
