Ghostwire: Tokyo is out on March 25, which is now just a few days away, and to ensure that everyone has a good idea of what to expect, Bethesda has dropped detailed PC system requirements with a half-dozen different specifications covering everything from low-end settings to maxed-out 4K.

Bethesda clarified in a follow-up tweet that all of the above specs target 30 fps. That’s not locked, however—framerate is uncapped on PC and players will be able to tweak settings for higher performance as they see fit, You will also require either a Steam or Epic Store account, and a broadband internet connection because everything is online these days. Specific preload and unlock times will be announced on the Ghostwire: Tokyo Twitter account.
If you’re still on the fence about Ghostwire: Tokyo (which, for the record, I think looks very cool), perhaps our review can help: It’s not the Evil Within-style horror experience that it originally appeared to be, but if you’re after “a neon Japanese adventure game where you get cool spirit powers and pet a bunch of dogs,” it might be just the thing you’re looking for.
