Taking a bite out of your VRAM
We’re under a week away from the release of Redfall, the open-world vampire shooter from Arkane. And if you’re getting your PC ready for what’s in store, Arkane has published the minimum, recommended, and ultra specifications for prospective PC players of Redfall.
Unsurprisingly, this game will take a hefty bite out of your tech to run. While the minimum is roughly what you’d expect, getting Redfall up to Ultra is going to take some solid hardware. Also, it appears you’ll need Windows 11 specifically for the ultra mark.
Curiously, though, the tweet from Arkane does not list out exactly what resolution or frame rate the minimum, recommended, and ultra specs entail. Those factors are usually listed out as part of the specifications, but they’re absent in this post. It normally wouldn’t be too much of a concern, and anecdotally, I’ve never had too many problems with Arkane’s PC versions.
Still, it won’t be long until we know for sure, as Redfall is just a few short days away. The new Arkane joint will hit Xbox Series X|S and PC on May 2.
