System Requirements for Mass Effect: Andromeda Revealed

Mass Effect: Andromeda is one of the most anticipated game of the year and the latest instalment from Bioware’s action-RPG epic. Mass Effect: Andromeda is set in the 22nd century with the plot centred around humanity planning to populate new home worlds in the Andromeda Galaxy as part of a strategy called the Andromeda Initiative. Players can assume either the role of either Sara or Scott Ryder, an inexperienced military recruit who joins the Initiative and wakes up in Andromeda following a 600-year journey.

The latest Mass Effect instalment utilises DICE’s Frostbite 3 engine and unsurprisingly, the minimum and recommended system requirements look similar to Battlefield 1’s, requiring a minimum of Intel Core i5 3570 or AMD FX-6350 CPU and an NVIDIA GTX 660 or AMD Radeon 7850 GPU. Having 4GB of RAM is not going to be enough as 8GB is the minimum suggested with 16GB being the more recommended amount.

• OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10
• Processor: Intel Core i5 3570 or AMD FX-6350
• Memory: 8 GB RAM
• Video Card: Nvidia GTX 660 2GB, AMD Radeon 7850 2GB
