Shenmue iii pc requirements are surprisingly high

Shenmue III, exclusive to the Epic Games Store on PC, has officially announced its requirements to be able to play it on PC, and they are surprisingly high when we talk about the recommended ones.

Shenmue III on PC and PlayStation 4 is out on November 19

Sega reveals the minimum and recommended requirements of Shenmue III, where high recommended requirements are being asked, considering that it does not seem to be the most cutting-edge game we have ever seen.

Minimum requirements

• Operating system: Windows 7 64-bit or later Processor: Intel Core i5-4460 (3.4 GHz) Quad-core or higher / equivalent Memory: 4 GB Graphics: Geforce 650 Ti 2GB or higher / equivalent API: DirectX 11 Storage: 100 GB Network: Connection broadband required

Recommended requirements

• Operating system: Windows 10 64-bit Processor: Intel Core i7-7700 (3.6 GHz) Quad-core or higher / equivalent Memory: 16 GB Graphics: Nvidia Geforce 1070 or higher / equivalent API: DirectX 11 Storage: 100 GB Network: Broadband connection required

Although the minimum specs are pretty friendly, what about the recommended ones? Admittedly, neither the i7-7700 processor nor the GTX 1070 are "cutting edge" anymore, but they are still powerful enough to run most AAA games at high settings, not to mention the "recommended" ones.

To give you an example, these specifications are superior to those of Battlefield V without DXR, in addition to requiring double disk space.

Shenmue III will be released on PC and the PlayStation 4 console on November 19.
