Elden Ring system requirements speak of 12GB ram but maker takes text offline again

FromSoftware put the minimum system requirements for the Windows version of Elden Ring online and then removed it shortly afterwards. Those requirements are not modest: there is talk of an eighth generation i5, a GTX 1060 3GB and 12GB of RAM.

Specifically, FromSoftware speaks of an Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 3 3300X and an Nvidia GTX 1060 3GB or AMD Radeon RX 580 with 4GB of vram. Those are the minimum requirements; the recommended specifications have not been disclosed. After sites to the IGN and PC Gamer picked up the data, FromSoftware retrieved the text from the steam page off. This may mean that they have not yet been disclosed, or that they are incorrect. For example, PC Gamer speculates that it may have been the recommended specs for 1080p60 gameplay and not the minimum.

When the system requirements are right, they are higher than most comparable titles. If you put games like Horizon Zero Dawn, Far Cry 6, Halo Infinite and Dying Light 2 next to it, you can see that 8GB of RAM is enough everywhere. The requirements for video cards and processors are also lower, although the difference is often smaller.

Elden Ring will be released on February 25 for Windows, PlayStation 4 and 5, and the Xbox One and Series. Tweakers wrote a in November preview of the game. Other games from the same studio include Dark Souls, Demon’s Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
