Mirror’s Edge is one of the most inventive games in recent memory due to the enthralling first person perspective and intense parkour mechanics. Furthermore, you feel a sense of being vulnerable and have to rely on your evasion skills instead of traditional weaponry. Personally, I absolutely adore the Mirror’s Edge formula and cannot wait for its sequel, Mirror’s Edge Catalyst which is currently scheduled for release on May 24th in the US. EA has just released the minimum PC requirements prior to the game’s release:
MINIMUM:
- OS: Windows® 7 64-Bit (use the latest Service Pack)
- CPU: Intel i3-3250 / AMD FX-6350. (Note: Mirror’s Edge Catalyst requires at least 4 logical cores to run.)
- RAM: 6 GB
- HARD DRIVE: At least 25 GB of free space
- VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 650 Ti 2GB or better / AMD Radeon™ R9 270x or better
- INPUT: Keyboard and mouse, dual analogue controller
RECOMMENDED:
- OS: Windows® 10 64-Bit (use the latest Service Pack)
- CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 at 3.4 GHz / AMD FX-8350 at 4.0 GHz
- RAM: 16 GB
- HARD DRIVE: At least 25 GB of free space
- VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 970 4GB or better / AMD Radeon™ R9 280x 3GB or better
- INPUT: Keyboard and mouse, dual analogue controller
Most PC gamers with a relatively modern system should be able to play the game without any complications. However, quoted specifications rarely give an insight into a game’s optimization and there’s no information regarding the resolution used. On the other hand, 16GB of RAM is a large amount considering a large number of people are still using 8GB. As always, we will have a performance analysis report which outlines the frame-rate across various graphics cards.
Are you looking forward to Mirror’s Edge Catalyst?
