FIFA 15 on PC won’t use the old engine again

Parity with PS4, Xbox One

While EA Sports went with its new Ignite engine for FIFA 14 on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, the company opted not to use the game engine for the PC version. At the time, it was argued that the average player didn’t have a good-enough machine to handle Ignite. Which there’s truth to, I’m sure, but for a franchise as massive as FIFA, that kind of justification is disappointing.

That won’t be the case again with FIFA 15 on PC. EA Sports made the announcement today, noting “all the same core features coming to the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game” will be included. The minimum and recommended system specs were also disclosed.

Minimum Required Specifications:

• OS: Windows V/7/8/8.1 64-bit
• CPU: Intel Q6600 Core2 Quad @ 2.4Ghz
• RAM: 4GB
• Hard Drive Space Required: 15.0 GB
• Minimum Supported Video Cards: ATI Radeon HD 5770, NVIDIA GTX 650
• DirectX: 11.0

Recommended Specifications:

• OS: Windows V/7/8/8.1 64-bit
• CPU: Intel i5-2550K @ 3.4Ghz
• RAM: 8GB
• Hard Drive Space Required: 15.0 GB
• Supported Video Cards: ATI Radeon HD 6870, NVIDIA GTX 460
• DirectX: 11.0

There’s more to come at E3, obviously, but I’m glad we got this info out of the way now.
