Alan Wake Remastered PC system requirements announced

Alan Wake Remastered is just one week away. Just ahead of launch, Remedy has revealed the PC system requirements and PC-specific features, in addition to various console quality/performance modes.

The PC version of Alan Wake Remastered will be a DirectX 12 title and unfortunately despite earlier rumours, there will be no ray-tracing. However, the game will support Nvidia DLSS, so RTX GPU owners will get a decent performance boost. Other PC features include ultra-wide support and unlocked frame rates. As far as 21:9 displays go, gameplay will be presented in full screen, but pre-rendered cutscenes will be displayed in 16:9.

The system requirements for the game include:

Minimum specs:

  • CPU: i5-3340 or Ryzen 3 1200
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 or AMD RX470. 4GB VRAM.
  • RAM: 8 GB or higher
  • OS: Win 10 64-bit

Recommended specs:

  • CPU: i7-3770 or Ryzen 5 1400
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD 5600XT. 6GB VRAM
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • OS: Win 10 64-bit

While PC users will have access to the full suite of graphical settings to balance visuals and performance, console owners will need to select from a number of modes. Xbox One and PS4 run at 900p/30FPS and 1080p/30FPS respectively, but the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro also offer a dynamic 4K/30FPS mode and a 1080p/60FPS mode.

The Xbox Series X and PS5 will run the game with a dynamic 4K resolution at 60 frames per second, while the Xbox Series S will offer 1080p/60FPS.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
