The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is out now and it is great! One of the new features is Geralt’s beard growing from clean shaven, to scruffy, to full blown beard over the course of hours spent in game. They have also added a complex weather system that changes the way you play depending on whether the weather is good (don’t sail during a storm). Another great gameplay mechanic is the day/night cycle, which changes the look of areas, as well as changing what monsters you encounter and also changing the monster’s themselves, for example werewolves are much more dangerous during the night. Many are calling it one of the most visually stunning games ever made. It plays wonderfully and looks better, well, it does if your computer can run it properly. The Witcher 3 has some pretty serious spec requirements on PC, but boy is it worthwhile if you can run it properly.
The MINIMUM requirements are:
- CPU: Intel CPU Core i5-2500K 3.3GHz or AMD CPU Phenom II X4 940
- RAM: 6 GB
- OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or 64-bit Windows 8 (8.1)
- Video Card: Nvidia GPU GeForce GTX 660 or AMD GPU Radeon HD 7870
- Free Disk Space: 40 GB
These are some serious specs, and that is just the bare minimum! To get to the higher tier of graphics you will want to at least meet the recommended specs which are:
- CPU: Intel CPU Core i7 3770 3.4 GHz or AMD CPU AMD FX-8350 4 GHz
- RAM: 8 GB
- OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or 64-bit Windows 8 (8.1)
- Video Card: Nvidia GPU GeForce GTX 770 or AMD GPU Radeon R9 290
- Free Disk Space: 40 GB
