Elden Ring - PC System Requirements
The developer From Software does not use a new engine for Elden Ring, but probably a slightly upgraded one, and the leap from Dark Souls 3 to the new open-world title is not very far in terms of performance requirements. While DS3 required at least a GTX 750 Ti or a Radeon HD 7950, Elden Ring should at least require a GTX 1060 or a comparable graphics card.
In other words: Elden Ring's system requirements are within the expected range considering the time between the releases, and even somewhat older systems should be able to handle the "Game of the Year 2022" (our crystal ball is honest!) relatively well. Here you can see the minimum requirements and the recommended hardware that the developer studio suggests.
As always we'd recommend making sure you have the latest drivers for your Graphics Card to ensure the smoothest experience at release - AMD / Nvidia.
