The Evil Within minimum PC requirements detailed

With The Evil Within having gone gold, Bethesda can finally give us the finale specifications needed to play the survival-horror game on PC. Last week, they revealed the recommended specs, but not everyone has the ideal gaming rig.

For those of you with maybe not the best PC, here are the minimum requirements. Keep in mind, these specifications will get the game running on your PC, but it won't be the ideal experience. Bethesda warns that you won't be playing in 1080p and you'll "likely need to turn off some features."

Here are the minimum requirements to play The Evil Within:

  • OS: windows 7/8.1
  • GPU: GTX 460 or an equivalent 1 GB VRAM card
  • CPU: i7 or an equivalent 4+ core processor
  • RAM: 4 GB
  • HDD: 50 GB

As a reminder, here are the recommended specs for those who want the "ideal experience," filled with full-screen anti-aliasing, full shadow quality, motion blur, tessellation, SSAO, and 1080p visuals.

  • 64-bit Windows 7/Windows 8
    i7 with four plus cores
  • 4 GBs RAM
  • 50 GB of hard drive space*
  • GeForce GTX 670 or equivalent with 4GBs of VRAM
  • High Speed Internet Connection
    Steam account and activation

*The 50 GB of space required is for the PC install. When the installation is complete, the game will take up ~41 GB of HDD space.
