The shooter Dying Light 2 has announced its system requirements. And they are surprisingly low. However, this only applies if you do not wish to use ray tracing. Because then the requirements increase significantly.
Dying Light 2 is a survival game from the first-person perspective, in which you can explore an open world inspired by Europe. The game focuses on choices that are supposed to have a strong impact on your game world. The shooter Dying Light 2 is also one of the most anticipated games on Steam for 2022. The game is set to release on February 4 for PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.
How Dying Light 2 plays has already been tested by MeinMMO and it is mainly the hard decisions that will captivate you.
Now the manufacturer has also announced the system requirements for Dying Light 2 and they are surprisingly moderate.
Dying Light 2 system requirements are moderate
What do I need for a PC? If you want to play Dying Light 2 with at least 30 FPS in Full HD, you need an Intel Core i3-9100 or AMD Ryzen 3 2300X as a processor. Additionally, either a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or an AMD Radeon RX 560 4 GB.
If you look at the numbers on Steam from November 2021, then currently especially 4 graphics cards are installed in about 20 percent of all gaming PCs:
- GeForce GTX 1060 (7.58 %)
- GeForce GTX 1650 (5.88 %)
- GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (5.73 %)
- GeForce RTX 2060 (5.07 %)
This means that many gamers will definitely meet the minimum requirements. The 3 most common cards on Steam are on average faster than the GTX 1050 Ti and the GT 1050 Ti itself is installed in about 6 % of all computers. At least as long as you want to play in Full HD. If you prefer to play in WQHD, you will need more power for the same performance.
When do I need a powerful computer? If you are interested in all the details and the new graphics technology ray tracing, you will need a powerful graphics card. Ray tracing provides better lighting and makes the game look prettier and more realistic.
However, if you want to use this technology, you will need a correspondingly powerful graphics card. The developers recommend a GeForce RTX 3080 if you want to play in Full HD with 60 FPS.
