Following Starfield’s huge exhibiting over the weekend at Microsoft’s Not-E3 presentation, some extra sensible particulars concerning the sport are coming to mild. Amongst them are the sport’s specs on PC, and whereas we don’t usually put up that form of stuff right here, one key requirement makes these fairly rattling notable.

Listed here are the specs, courtesy of the sport’s newly-updated Steam web page:

A strong state drive isn’t simply really useful, it’s needed, even on minimal specs. I actually can’t consider one other sport that requires you to have one. They arrive strongly really useful on PC, after all, particularly for large open world video video games, however saying you want one is one thing else.

Should you don’t have already got one, had been considering of selecting up Starfield, met all the opposite specs however didn’t have an SSD…you might be in all probability very a lot within the minority, but when so, then that sucks that you just’ll have to spend some more money on {hardware} you may not have in any other case been anticipating.

That mentioned! An SSD actually is a large assist for thus many sorts of PC video games, and the reality they’re comparatively low-cost—and very straightforward to put in—means this isn’t the identical stage of catastrophe as you not assembly, say, the minimal graphics card necessities.
