There’s been a lot of talk surrounding Respawn Entertainment’s upcoming sequel, Titanfall 2. The recent beta was just a taste of what’s to come and from what I played, I’m excited to see how the remainder of the game shapes up. Though the beta was only available for PS4 and Xbox One, so I was a bit worried about how the PC version would run and more to the point, what the requirements would be. Well, thanks to a new update over at the Titanfall blog, the PC requirements have been revealed. So now you can see where your PC rates in terms of expected performance. Thankfully, the requirements for just jumping in aren’t too massive at least for 1080p. But if you’re wanted to test the 4K waters, well you better have one beast of a rig.
Enough talk, let’s get to those requirements.

Nice to see that Windows 10 is not a requirement, which is something a lot of recent games have been requiring. Also looks that lower spec PCs will be able to run Titanfall 2, and even the recommended specs aren’t that demanding either. Though, as expected, the 4K arena is a different story as it requires at least a GTX 1080, which puts a lot of gamers out of the picture. Even my once mighty GTX 980 Ti isn’t enough if I wanted to try for 4K.
Then there’s the new trailer, which is at the beginning of this post. Not much to say about it, other than check it out.
Titanfall 2 drops for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 28, 2017.
