Shadow of the Tomb Raider PC system requirements are here

Shadow of the Tomb Raider will be with us in less than two weeks time. At this point, we've had a few trailers and seen extensive gameplay footage. Now we also have the minimum and recommended system requirements for the PC version of the game.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider will be one of the first games to support Nvidia's new real-time ray-tracing technology. As we've already heard, this effect will be extremely taxing to run, so these system requirements don't take RTX into account. I would estimate 720p/low for the minimum requirement and 1080p/high for the recommended but we don't know for sure just yet.

Here are the minimum system requirements:

  • OS: Windows 7 64-bit
  • CPU: Intel Core i3-3220 or AMD Equivalent
  • RAM: 8GB
  • GPU: Nvidia GTX 660/GTX 1050 or AMD Radeon HD 7770
  • Storage: 40 GB available space

Here are the recommended system requirements:

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • CPU: Intel Core i7 4770K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600
  • RAM: 16GB
  • GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 480 8GB
  • Storage: 40 GB available space

KitGuru Says: I finally finished Rise of the Tomb Raider earlier this year, so I'm looking forward to picking this one up in a couple of weeks. Are any of you planning on playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider when it launches?

Crimson Desert was a hotly-anticipated brand new IP prior to its official launch earlier this month, with the ambitious open-world title garnering a ton of attention thanks to its pretty visuals, freeform gameplay and player agency. Upon its launch however, the game suffered from a number of issues, including rather awkward controls. Fortunately, the team at Pearl Abyss have been quick to respond to criticisms – with Crimson Desert having now climbed its way to a ‘Very Positive’ score on Steam.
