As you can see, these Forspoken system requirements are really quite extreme, and also rather strange too. Requiring a 4080 at the top end is significant but perhaps not unprecedented for 4K 60fps gaming, but the AMD requirements seem to be a lot less severe.
Furthermore, 24GB RAM as a minimum for 1440p 30fps is really quite steep (and also odd numbers-wise), and the 150GB storage requirement indicates that the game is going to be large in scale, textures, or perhaps both.
That wraps it up for this guide on the Forspoken system requirements, giving you a full rundown of what components you will need in order to run the game well on PC. Find out the full Forspoken release date details in this handy guide though as we wind up to the release.
