Update 05-10-2022: The requirements have been fully revealed and updated above.
Currently, only the minimum requirements have been revealed, and since the title is still months away from launch, we’ll likely get the complete requirements near release. We’ll make sure to update this as soon as those are up.
For now, though, if you have a GTX 1060 and a CPU like the i7-3770, you should be fine if you’re okay with turning down a few settings. The GTX 1060 is still the most popular GPU for PC users, according to Steam, so it’s nice to see it being mentioned for an upcoming Sonic title.
Apart from that, the title isn’t that big, and you only need 28 GB of free space. 8 GB of RAM is listed, but we’re assuming the recommended requirements will have 16 GB. AMD components aren’t listed in these, but it’s safe to say that the RX 480 should fulfill the minimum criteria.
Sonic Frontiers Release Date
The title is coming to PC, Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S|X on 8th November 2022. Check out the brand new story trailer below.
