Over the weekend, the sequel to Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor was leaked as Shadow of War, and shortly after that, WB Studios announced the official release date. Now, normally, we’d have to wait some time before we get to see the system requirements, but not in this case. Which definitely comes as a pleasant surprise.
Feast your eyes upon the specs you need to run the game, and for the ones who don’t have meet the requirements, sit in the corner and weep (like I did).
