The Ghostwire: Tokyo release date will soon be upon us, but before you place your pre-order and net yourself a swanky outfit in the process, you should make sure your gaming PC is ready for the paranormal romp. Fortunately, it doesn’t take much to meet the Ghostwire: Tokyo system requirements, but you might need to upgrade your gaming RAM if you’re still a member of the 8GB crew.
Standards have shifted over the last few years, with games asking for more memory than ever, so it probably won’t surprise you to see 16GB of RAM recommended here. However, entry-level and ageing systems might feel some pressure from the high barrier to entry, as Tango Gameworks suggests a minimum of 12GB of RAM to play the action-adventure horror game. This is something we’ll probably see more of throughout 2022 and beyond, so choose your next upgrade wisely.
It also continues the trend of recommending an SSD over a mechanical hard drive for faster loading times, but you can take comfort knowing it won’t take up too much storage space at just 20GB.
Here are the Ghostwire: Tokyo system requirements:
Minimum | Recommended | |
OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 64-bit |
---|---|---|
CPU | Intel Core i7-4770K AMD Ryzen 5 2600 |
Intel Core i7-6700 AMD Ryzen 5 2600 |
RAM | 12GB | 16GB |
GPU | Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT |
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT |
VRAM | 6GB | 6GB |
Storage | 20GB SSD | 20GB SSD |
The game will feature ray traced shadows and reflections, which you’ll be able to turn on if you have a compatible Nvidia GeForce RTX or AMD Radeon RX graphics card. You’ll be able to mitigate the performance impact of these intensive graphical options and boost fps by using Nvidia DLSS or AMD FSR.
