If you're planning on hosting Kratos and Atreus in the great halls of your SSD when God of War Ragnarök releases on September 19, you'd better start making some room. While the system requirements don't look all that taxing overall, you'll need a massive 190 GB of available space to fit in all those Gods, and presumably a fair bit or warring, too.
The good news is that, according to the specs sheet, all these metrics are given at native resolution with no upscaling employed. That being said, the PC port trailer has promised a plethora of upscaling trickery from all the major players (along with super ultrawide support), so you'll be spoilt for choice if you do need a bit of a helping hand meeting the specs.
DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1 and XeSS 1.3 are all supported, so no matter your graphics card choice you're sure to find something suitable for a modern GPU—although as I found recently, you should probably stick to DLSS if you have the option over the latest FSR release.
Still, Kratos has made his judgement, and he's decided that you'll only need an Intel i5 4670K or AMD Ryzen 3 1200 to meet minimum specs, along with a GTX 1060 or RX 5500 XT. The GTX 1060 appears to still cling on in many modern game requirements, although this sort of spec will only get you a 30 fps average at Low settings.
Moving up the sheet, 1080p 60 fps at Medium settings will require an Intel i5 8600 or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 along with an RTX 2060 Super or RX 5700, while 1440p High at 60 fps needs an RTX 3070 or RX 6800. Reasonably demanding on the GPU then, although it must be said that the game does look pretty fabulous in what we've seen so far.
Above that is where things get a little odd in the categorisation. Above High is Performance, which apparently equates to 4K 60 fps high settings, while Ultra is 4K 60 fps, err, Ultra.
For Performance, the GPU spec jumps significantly to the RTX 3080 Ti and RX 6900 XT, while Ultra demands anRTX 4070 Ti or RX 7900 XT. Shouldn't come as too much of a surprise that
