Nixxes Software has released official PC system requirements for Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut that will officially launch on May 16th. In addition, the game will be the first PlayStation title on PC that will use the PlayStation overlay. The game will also feature support for NVIDIA DLSS 3, AMD FSR 3 and Intel XeSS, as well as support for NVIDIA DLAA and AMD FSR 3 Native AA.

Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut on PC will feature the full game, the Iki Island expansion, and the cooperative online multiplayer Legends mode. It will also support cross-play, allowing games on PC to team up with PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles. Of course, you'll still need to sign in to PlayStation Network account for Legends mode. In addition, this will be the first game on the PC to use the new PlayStation overlay, allowing users on PC to access Friends list, Trophies, Settings, and Profile.



Nixxes also revealed the official PC system requirements for the game as well as giving it a wide range of graphics presets and settings, allowing the game to both run on older hardware PCs and shine on high-end PC system configurations. In order to run that game at very low preset, where you with get 30 FPS on 720p resolution, you will need an Intel Core i3-7100 or AMD Ryzen 3 1200 CPU, NVIDIA GTX 960 4 GB or AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT graphics card, and 8 GB of RAM. The very high graphics preset with 4K resolution at 60 FPS raises those requirements to an Intel Core i5-11400 or AMD Ryzen 5 5600 CPU, an NVIDIA RTX 4080 or AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics card, and 16 GB of RAM.

The game will also need 75 GB of storage space, with SSD being recommended, and at least Windows 10 64-bit OS. The game will also support ultra-wide monitors with 21:9, 32:9, and 48:9 aspect ratios, and also fully supports most, if not all controllers, as well as PlayStation DualSense controller with haptic feedback and adaptive triggers.

As said, the game will launch on May 16th, and we are certainly looking forward in checking it out, and hopefully it will be a decent port, at least judging from these PC system requirements.

Not particularly good news, this was a PS4 title and you need a 4080/7900XT to play at 4K60 ? I hope they are just being awfully conservative.

So you claim that the game has no improvement over the PS4? Overall this company makes good ports.

This game already looked glorious on PS5 when I played it through a couple times. They make good ports with lots of visual fidelity improvements I am honestly not surprised by the GPU requirements.

Well considering what the game ran at on PlayStation hardware I don't think what they're saying is required should be too far off... Trust in Nixxes though as they've proven to be great at porting PlayStation games to PC!

I don't know what improvements it can have other than higher resolution X,Y,Z, it will probably pretty much the same game.

The PS5 is the equivalent of a GTX ~1070/RTX 2060 (non-super).

THE RTX 4080 Super has ~4x times the power of the RTX 2080 Super.

Just let that... FACT... marinate in you for a minute, aiiiiight? And just be honest with yourself.

I would say 2080S/3070, especially if the team behind it is top-notch. However, I'm curious, how does this relate to what I mentioned? I hope you're not here to spark one of those console vs. PC fan debates.

They can polish much better than that. In any case, it will be an AAA more worthy of being purchased than most games that sell themselves as revolutionaries with perfect graphics and sparkling lights (RT), and in the end, despite bringing together all the elements to be decent, they are just a generic jumble. and poorly executed.

I'm pretty sure the 4080 was because of the 16GB VRAM, look at the specs of Horizon Forbidden West they're pretty much the same. The games runs at a pretty constant 4K@60fps on a 4080, maybe a 4070 Ti SUPER could do that too.

The PS5 is the equivalent of a GTX ~1070/RTX 2060 (non-super).

THE RTX 4080 Super has ~4x times the power of the RTX 2080 Super.

The PS5 has a GPU that is closer to 2070 or 2070 SUPER not 1070 lol

Not at 4K@60fps based on the average performance table (last photo). That table specifies a 3070 for 1440p@60fps performance at High settings.

Perhaps if your 3060 Ti is a golden sample with a well tuned & stable overclock, you might get 1440p@60fps through much of the game.

At what resolution? and High as High settings or High as Max settings?
Imo if you own Horizon Forbidden West the performance in Ghost of Tsushima should be around the same (or a tad better).

Sure but do you play 10 games of that size all at the same time? And even if so... get another SSD. If you want to hoard... you need space.

You can delete and reinstall stuff you know

Which is precisely why I have an old 8TB external spinner for game archiving. You do know that you aren't limited to internal-only storage, yes?

I do this mostly because my DSL Internet connection is ghetto slow and I prefer not to spend 2-3 nights downloading a 75GB game.

Feel free to bitch and moan but it's relatively unlikely that these kind of games will suddenly drop down to 2-3GB sizes. You could hold out for cloud gaming though.

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!
