Check out Starfield's system requirements on PC

The recent reveal of new footage showing plenty of details about Starfield has increased the hype for the game by tenfolds. The upcoming space adventure from the creators of Skyrim boasts impressive graphics, an exciting storyline, and an unprecedented level of replayability. When everyone thought that Starfield was going to be a standard open-world adventure, Bethesda announced that the game includes procedurally generated planets that will take exploration to a completely different level.

Starfield will be much more than Skyrim in the space and one of the best games of 2023 if Bethesda plays well its cards. The release of the game is scheduled for September 6, exclusively on PC and Xbox Series X, which is an expected side effect of Microsoft's purchase of the developer studio.

Not too demanding

Even though Starfield features impressive graphics, the system requirements that your PC needs to meet to run the game are not that extreme. You can check them out right below:

Minimum

• OS: Windows 10 version 22H2 (10.0.19045)
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X / Intel Core i7-6800K
• RAM: 16GB
• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5700 / Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Ti
• DirextX: DX12
• Storage: 125GB available space (SSD required)

Recommended

• OS: Windows 10 / 11 with updates
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X / Intel Core i5-10600
• RAM: 16GB
• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080
• DirextX: DX12
• Storage: 125GB available space (SSD required)

The only noteworthy surprise on the requirements is the need for quite a bit of space in your SSD, which is unavoidably required to run the game. Also, Bethesda has stated that Starfield will be capped at 30fps on Xbox consoles and there is an open discussion about if the same will happen for the PC version. We will know more about that in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, you can use our comparator to find the best prices on Starfield CD keys for all platforms and get ready to play on day one.
