According to the portal The limit, these requirements are rare. For example, neither game likes Microsoft flight simulator take the recommended amount of memory, requiring a minimum of 8GB RAM and 16GB in the recommended requirements. Likewise, more technologically intense games such as Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead Redemption 2 or A Plague Tale: Requiem, don’t ask for more than 16 GB of RAM memory. In the case of Returnal, 16GB of RAM will be the minimum requirement. The remaining requirements seem to be more moderate and normal.
The reasons for these high requirements are up in the air for now, as the advantages of the PC version of Returnal over the PlayStation 5 version are unknown.
