There is currently a typo in the CPU requirements part, which is why I’ve left that empty. There is no target framerate or resolution mentioned here, but if you’re looking to play at higher settings you’ll need something like an RX 6800 XT, or an RTX 2080 paired with a Ryzen 5 3600X.
If you’re fine with turning down some settings, you can get by with a GTX 1070 Ti, which is still a pretty popular 1080p GPU, paired with a Ryzen 5 2600X.
Apart from that, you need a total of 125 GB of free space, SSD in both cases, no matter what settings you use.
