God Of War PC Specs Revealed Ahead Of January Release

Boy – you’re going to need a really powerful PC to run God of War at 4K/60FPS. 

Sony Santa Monica has released the specifications and requirements needed to play its 2018 hit title, God of War, on PC, and as expected, you’ll need quite a beefy machine. To even hit 4K/60FPS on PC, SMS recommends an Nvidia RTX 3080, which is the highly sought-after GPU that’s basically impossible to purchase at the moment. The recommended specs for God of War require a Nvidia GTX 1060 GPU, an Intel i5-6600K CPU, and Windows 10. 

Here’s a full look at what you’ll need in your machine to play God of War at various visual fidelities, including minimum, recommended, high, performance, and ultra. 

Also, the studio released a trailer that showcased some of what you can expect from God of War on PC. 

Nvidia DLSSAI Performance Boost and Nvidia Reflex are some of the PC-specific features. AMD FidelityFXSuper Resolution is an enhanced resolution, as well as enhanced graphics. 

“Higher-resolution shadows, improved screen space reflections, enhanced Ground Truth Ambient Occlusion (GTAO) and Screen Space Directional Occlusion (SSDO), alongside highly detailed assets and rendering solutions means God of War on PC will be a beautiful, crisp visual experience,” SMS’ blog post reads. 

In October the PC version of God of War, which was just half a year following the PlayStation 5 update to God of War, was made public. That update brought 60 FPS, 4K Checkerboard Resolution, and 2160p resolutions to the game, and if you aren’t able to play it there, you can get similar performances soon when it hits PC on January 14 next year.
