GSC Game World’s S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl showed off a meaty chunk of gameplay footage at the Xbox and Bethesda E3 2021 showcase, and unsurprisingly, the shooter looked very impressive. Especially from a visuals perspective, there was a lot of eye-popping stuff to marvel at, so it’s not surprising that the game’s going to require a pretty beefy rig if you want to play the PC version.
Minimum and recommended requirements have been revealed for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, thanks to an update to its Steam page. On minimum requirements, it’ll need either a Ryzen 5 1600X or an i5-7600K along with either a Radeon RX 580 or a GeForce GTX 1060, and 8 GB of RAM. Recommended requirements are much more demanding, however, requiring either a Ryzen 7 3700X or an i7-9700K along with either a Radeon RX 5700 XT, or a GeForce RTX 2070, or a GeForce GTX 1080. You’ll also need 16 GB of RAM.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl launches for PC and Xbox Series X/S on April 28, 2022. If you play on playing it on consoles instead, prepare to clear out some storage space- it will require just a little over 150 GB of free storage space.
