Ahead of its June 23 release, the minimum- and recommended-system requirements of Rocksteady's next installment to the super-hit Batman: Arkham franchise, Arkham Knight, was disclosed by NVIDIA. The PC version appears to have some clear visual benefits over the console variants of this game, given its steep storage requirements. Given that it will get an NVIDIA GameWorks varnish, PC gamers can expect eye-candy that won't make it to the console versions, including support for high-resolution display standards, such as 4K Ultra HD.



Without further ado, the system requirements lists.

Minimum System Requirements:
  • 64-bit Windows 7 or Windows 8.1
  • Intel Core i5-750 or AMD Phenom II X4 965 quad-core processors
  • 6 GB of RAM
  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or AMD-equivalent, with 2 GB of video memory
  • 45 GB free-space
Recommended System Requirements:
  • 64-bit Windows 7 or Windows 8.1
  • Intel Core i7-3770 or AMD FX-8350
  • 8 GB of RAM
  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 (recommended) or GeForce GTX 980 (for Ultra settings)
  • 55 GB free-space
These requirements lists come from NVIDIA, and so a lack of "AMD Radeon" shouldn't surprise you. We reckon that a Radeon HD 5850 for minimum-, Radeon HD 7870 for recommended, and Radeon R9 290 for Ultra-settings should fit in just fine. The extra 10 GB required for RSR is suspicious, maybe it has an optional high-res texture pack.

Another huge game. It seems to me that requirements for games, especially storage space, are escalating fast. I see that Vista is not supported.

For what purpose does recommended need 10 gigabytes more disc space than minimum? Also why are disc space requirements so huge these days? Uncompressed audio/textures?

VRAM sizes are ballooning. Course look at consoles. They have jumped to 8GB ranges. Who needs to compress when they've been given a blank check to push to the new limits?

Wouldn't be surprised if 8GB becomes the standard in a year or two. Sat for some time with 1GB. Wasn't till BF3 did 2GB and higher start getting attractive. Consider the last console gen. If devs like DICE didn't start pushing and attention start shifting back to PC, we'd still be fiddling with 360s and PS3s.

Prolly only thing that might hold it back is hardware limitations if things like the 970 continue.

doubtfull. Until next generation it won't go much higher. Even right now 2GB is perfectly fine, 4GB for 4K.

Consoles don't have 8GB of VRAM, it is shared memory, both CPU and GPU use it and GPU doesn't use much of it considering they struggle to reach 1080p most of the time.

For what purpose does recommended need 10 gigabytes more disc space than minimum?
maybe optional HD texture pack.
Also why are disc space requirements so huge these days?
Games get bigger and better why would HDD space requirements remain the same?

You fail badly :0 the nextgen consoles use a shared memory system and the Gtx 970 is still great value for its price i dont see the hardware limitation since it can use 4GB just at a slower bandwith rate!

It seems like the minimum system requires are quite steep graphics card wise to me.

where does it mention VRAM requirements?

The minimum system requirements list 2GB. GTA:V only required 1GB.

Also why are disc space requirements so huge these days?

Because storage is so cheap and we finally have the VRAM to cram massive textures into.

What amazes me is the number of people that find 45 or 60GB large. A good 4TB drive is only $170. 45GB is like 1% of that, maybe 2% of the space avaialble after formatting and crap.

No AMD GPUs are recommended for this game. It seems like Nvidia's way of "working with a game company" is to make the company's games exclusive to their hardware. Every piece of technology Nvidia makes is proprietary. They have this mindset that they need to solely dominate the whole market and everyone else needs to die. They don't understand that by doing so they're segmenting the market and slowing down any progress that could possibly move the industry forward.

With regard to the game itself, I'm not a fan of any of the Batman games. I tried Arkham Origins and I didn't like it. It's a PS3 class game in terms of visuals and mechanics. Nothing impressive and to much repetition.
The story telling is not too bad, but man I'm not a fan of super hero stories and comics.

the requirements seem a bit high but hey at least the players get eye candy :p. I see Amd users can also be happy since they don't need a 8 core FX as minimum so there's that :-]

this game should look a lot better then GTA5 though if the screenshots released so far have anything to say about it.
I wonder if i3 owners can play as well since they have hyper threading :confused:

These specs are released by nVidia, not the game developer, of course it will only list nVidia GPUs. It doesn't mean you can't use AMD cards...
Tell em ;)

Here's a listing of the system requirements for the game from Guru3D:
http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/batman-arkham-knight-pc-specs-revealed.html

NO AMD GPUs are in the recommended and ultra system requirements sections. What this means is that this is another one of these games that run horribly on decent hardware from both AMD and Nvidia, but run a lot worse on AMD hardware. That's what Gameworks is all about...

I cannot see a reason why it should become a problem. One can always use AMD graphics card that is equal to or better than GTX 760 and GTX 980 listed in recommended and ultra requirement respectively.

Everyone who has been posting system specs have gotten it from Nvidia's. Since Nvidia is the first to release anything thus far. There hasn't been specs released from RockSteady yet.

The specs have been shared by Nvidia...

What amazes me is the number of people that find 45 or 60GB large. A good 4TB drive is only $170. 45GB is like 1% of that, maybe 2% of the space avaialble after formatting and crap.

Some countries have sub-par internet with slow download speeds and limited quota.

They have this mindset that they need to solely dominate the whole market and everyone else needs to die.

Isn't that every corporations goal in a capitalist economy?

Sorry mate, I prefer running the games from my SSD for fast loading, not from a shitty HDD. If a game is 60GB, you do the math on how fast a 512GB drive gets full ;)

Some countries have sub-par internet with slow download speeds and limited quota.

Then you order the retail copy.

Sorry mate, I prefer running the games from my SSD for fast loading, not from a shitty HDD. If a game is 60GB, you do the math on how fast a 512GB drive gets full ;)

That is your choice, but it barely makes a difference. You'll waste 60GB of SSD space just so the game loads 15s faster when you first start it and nothing else?(Yes, I tested GTA:V on my SSD and my HDD, and that is literally the only difference.)

Another huge game. It seems to me that requirements for games, especially storage space, are escalating fast. I see that Vista is not supported.
32bit isnt even on there. I also read that post launch this game will get a DX12 update patch.

What this means is that this is another one of these games that run horribly on decent hardware from both AMD and Nvidia, but run a lot worse on AMD hardware. That's what Gameworks is all about...

nVidia Gameworks (along with Ubisoft's sh*t PC releases) IMO is what is severely hurting the PC game industry. This does nothing but cause division and hampers both progress and gaming enjoyment.

Can't wait for this, looks superb.

It's not even out yet but like every Batman game before, the peeps that freely go AMD are already playing the victim card.

God bless the free market.

As far as I can remember every batman game had had issues (both with AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards) at launch.
Arkham Asylum ran well but had MSAA disabled on AMD, even when it was enabled it was running several passes as opposed to the the necessary one and severely hurting AMDs performance.
Arkham City's DX11 code path was a serious performance hog that ran like crap unless you used the DX9 path. Also GFWL, nuff said.
Arkham Origin had Crysis 2 levels of overtesselation and had game breaking glitches that took a long time to fix. Finally, the devs gave up and said every issue that doesn't prevent progression won't be fixed because there were so many of em.
It's fine to watch a snazzy trailer for any game and lose your shit, but no game that Rocksteady has made to date was optimized properly.
Fingers crossed, it looks like an amazing game. Hopefully it'll be a done deal at first.
