Dying Light’s PC system requirements revealed

Dying Light’s Steam page has recently revealed the game’s official minimum and recommended system requirements, in addition to making the game available for pre-ordering. Future players will need a minimum of 4GB of RAM, a DX10 graphics card, and at least 20GB of free HDD space. That said, Steam also reads that both the minimum and recommended requirements could slightly change over the game’s development time.

Dying Light is in development at the studio who previously made the first two Dead Island games (the original and Riptide), in addition to the entire Call of Juarez franchise. It’s a zombie apocalypse-themed game set in an open world similar to South-American slums and cities. Players traverse an expansive urban environment overrun by a vicious outbreak, scavenging the world for supplies and crafting weapons to defend against the growing infected population with a heavy focus on free-running mechanics. Gamers can also customise the four characters in the game. Dying Light is mostly melee-based, with the majority of fighting using melee weapons. There are more than 100 weapons that can be used, and even more when players begin crafting new weapons.

Dying Light launches on January 27th, on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
