In addition to the beautiful 4K trailer released at Gamescom, the minimum and recommended PC specs to run Gears of Wars 4 have been revealed by Microsoft.
For the sake of clarity, Microsoft has offered three tiers of PC specs required for the game – minimum, recommended and ideal. However, no matter the case, you’ll need the Windows 10 Anniversary Edition update to be able to play the game, along with an appalling 80 GB of free hard drive space.
To run the game on minimum specs, you just need a 750 Ti or an R7 260 X. However, the recommended graphic cards are either the r9 290x or the RX 480 for AMD and the GTX 970 or GTX 1060 for NVIDIA. The ideal specs boast of an R9 Fury x or a 980Ti/GTX 1080, along with an SSD – calling for a decent investment, especially when you have to dedicate 80 GB of storage to single game.
