The highly anticipated PC port of Ghost of Tsushima is finally coming out on May 16 in the form of a Director’s Cut. With just a month to go, Sony has revealed the system requirements for the game today with a surprising feature.
In a new post on the PlayStation blog, the studio mentioned the minimum PC specs required to run the game. On very low settings, Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut will be playable on Intel Core i3 7100 systems at 30 FPS.
However, the resolution in that case would be capped to 720p. The system would also need to have a GTX 960 4GB or a more advanced graphics card along with at least 8 GB of RAM. Those on AMD’s Ryzen 7 processor (i3 equivalent) will also be able to enjoy this support as long as their system includes a Radeon RX 5500 XT graphics card or higher.
While 720p may seem like an unnecessary step back for many current-gen gamers, the low barrier for entry will allow players on older hardware to enjoy the super hit title. Such level of accessibility could also help Sony bring new fans to the franchise to give them a taste of what they’re missing before Ghost of Tsushima 2 starts its marketing run.
