The Medium: The horror game has steep system requirements – games up-to-date

If everything goes according to plan, the horror game The Medium will be released on January 28, 2021 for the PC and Xbox Series X. So that you can prepare yourself a little, the development studio Bloober Team has announced the final system requirements – and they are pretty steep.

Because as a minimum you need a graphics card at the level of a GeForce GTX 1060 or an AMD R9 390X. It should also be an Intel Core i5 or an AMD Ryzen 5. However, this does not allow for too big leaps, because there are only 30 frames per second in a 1080p resolution with low graphics settings. If you want to enjoy the full program including ultra settings and ray tracing, you should have an Intel Core i7-9700 and a GeForce RTX 3080.
