Batman: Arkham Knight System Requirements Revealed
Hot on the heels of Grand Theft Auto V's Los Santos-sized system requirements comes Batman: Arkham Knight's and you'll need a WayneTech rig for those ultra settings.
PC Gamer reports that Nvidia has come forth with the system requirements that you will need to play the upcoming Batman: Arkham Knight title. There are three different categories that Nvidia has released: minimum system requirements, recommended system requirements, and ULTRA system requirements. Spoiler alert: if you have less than 6GB of RAM, well... you're kinda out of luck. You can check out the three different requirements below:
Minimum System Requirements
- OS: Win 7 SP1, Win 8.1 (64-bit Operating System Required)
- Processor: Intel Core i5-750, 2.67 GHz | AMD Phenom II X4 965, 3.4 GHz
- Memory: 6 GB RAM
- Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
- Graphics Memory: 2 GB
- DirectX®: 11
- Network: Broadband Internet Connection Required
- Hard Drive Space: 45 GB
Recommended System Requirements
- OS: Win 7 SP1, Win 8.1 (64-bit Operating System Required)
- Processor: Intel Core i7-3770, 3.4 GHz | AMD FX-8350, 4.0 GHz
- Memory: 8 GB RAM
- Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760
- Graphics Memory: 3 GB
- DirectX®: 11
- Network: Broadband Internet Connection Required
- Hard Drive Space: 55 GB
ULTRA System Requirements
- OS: Win 7 SP1, Win 8.1 (64-bit Operating System Required)
- Processor: Intel Core i7-3770, 3.4 GHz | AMD FX-8350, 4.0 GHz
- Memory: 8 GB RAM
- Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980
- Graphics Memory: 3 GB

Luckily, even the ULTRA system requirements (note the caps) are relatively do-able. It will also be interesting to see if you really do need 3GB of graphics memory. Also interesting to note is that broadband is required in all of the PC versions of the game, meaning there might be some kind of online component to Batman's final Rocksteady venture. Nevertheless, those ULTRA requirements make us feel that Scarecrow gassed us.
We will just have to wait for Batman: Arkham Knight's June 23 release to see if these system requirements are shooting high or if you really do need all of these specs to run the game.
