Rockstar Games and Take-Two announced last week that they’re bringing Red Dead Redemption 2 to PC this year. However, the game that’s already out for PS4 and Xbox One will hit the Epic Games Store, Rockstar Games Launcher, Stadia, Greenman Gaming, the Humble Store, and GameStop on November 5th, 2019. The Steam version is coming sometime in December, but what is here now is the game’s PC specs.
Despite the first title that is Red Dead Redemption still being a console exclusive, the second iteration is heading to PC for gamers in Q4 2019.
The above-mentioned comes from rockstargames.com, but ahead of the company going all-in on Red Dead Redemption 2’s PC specs later this week, gamers who have pre-ordered the game or have the Rockstar Games Launcher can see what the title is asking on the minimal and recommended front.
Depending on how many updates you have for the console version of Red Dead Redemption 2 can see the game reach up into the 100GB zone. As per playstation.com and microsoft.com, the two respectively show the second game calling for 89.2 GB and 98.64 GB for the Ulitmate Edition without updates.
The stock or vanilla version of Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC calls for a whopping 150GB of free space to run the game. You will also need 8GB of RAM to go hands-on with the game in question at low specs, and you’ll need 12GB if you want to play the game as recommended.
