Hidetaka Miyazaki and his team at FromSoftware have been hard at work over the past few years to deliver Elden Ring in the best shape possible, but the recent PC system requirements of the game have made fans worried about the optimization of the PC version!

FromSoftware games have always been pretty brutal and unforgiving in gameplay, but when it comes to visuals they are pretty forgiving towards low-spec-friendly PCs. That being said, it seems no longer true with Elden Ring.

Recently, we received the minimum system requirements for Elden Ring from the developers, which is way higher than what we would expect.

Elden Ring Minimum PC Requirements Revealed
According to FromSoftware, playing Elden Ring at the lowest preset needs a GTX 1060 at minimum. While GTX 1060 is a GPU from three generations earlier in Nvidia’s architecture, it’s still a powerful graphics card, and we don’t usually see it as a minimum spec even in recent games.

While we believe that Elden Ring will be very bold in visuals compared to the previous games of FromSoftware, it still doesn’t look that great to require a GTX 1060 for minimum specs.

OS: Win10 or 11 (64-bit)
Processor: Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 3 3300X
Memory: 12 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3 GB or AMD Radeon RX 580 4 GB
DirectX: Version 12
Storage: 60 GB

Elden Ring is out on February 25th for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC. You can download the latest Elden Ring Trainer and cheats for free from WeMod.
