The PC release of Remedy’s upcoming game, Quantum Break, has been released. Sorry Windows 7 gamers, this game requires Windows 10. 

The system requirements are listed below:

  • OS: Windows 10 (64-bit)
  • CPU: Intel Core i5-4460, 2.70GHz or AMD FX- 6300
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 or AMD Radeon R7 260x
  • RAM: 8 GB
  • VRAM: 2 GB
  • HDD: 55 GB available space
  • DX: DirectX 12

Recommended:

  • OS: Windows 10 (64-bit)
  • CPU: Intel Core i5 4690, 3.9GHz or AMD equivalent
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 or AMD Radeon R9 390
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • VRAM: 4 GB
  • HDD: 55 GB available space
  • DX: DirectX 12

Ultra

  • OS: Windows 10 (64-bit)
  • CPU:  Intel Core i7 4790, 4GHz or AMD equivalent
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 980 Ti or AMD Radeon R9 Fury X
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • VRAM: 6 GB
  • HDD: 55 GB available space
  • DX: DirectX 12

The article on PCGamer reports that the “Ultra” spec is seriously high-end and so is the “Recommended”. Players should be alright if they settle for 1080p with only a few effects dialed back. The DX12 requirement is non-negotiable.

Microsoft also states that the Windows 10 and Xbox One versions of the game will support shared saves, but will not actually cross-play due to the fact it is “a single player action-adventure experience.”

Quantum Break for Windows 10 will be out on April 15th.
