The PC specs for Days Gone are revealed, showing the minimum and recommended system requirements needed to run the game.

The last year has seen PlayStation port over several of its exclusive game titles to the PC, and now Days Gone will be joining the list this year. Days Gone will be coming to PC sometime this spring for PC players to enjoy, according to an interview with Jim Ryan from PlayStation.

Coinciding with the PC launch, Days Gone has received its own Steam page, which comes with a description for the game. The game description reveals the PC system specs needed to run the game, listing the minimum and recommended system requirements. Despite the information, the Steam page doesn't provide details on the game's precise release date this spring.

According to the Steam page, the game's PC system requirements will not be too draining for PC users. The game's OS requirement is a Windows 10 64-bit operating system. The minimum PC requirements include an Intel Core i5-2500K or AMD FX 6300 for processing, 8 GB of RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 or AMD Radeon R9 290 for graphics. The recommended requirements include an Intel Core i7-4770K or Ryzen 5 1500X, with 16 GB of RAM, and either an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 580.

Despite the mixed reception Days Gone received from critics, the game does possess some striking graphics that make the zombie game look good. Along with the PC specs, the Steam version of the game will receive additional PC features when it releases.

This includes ultra-wide monitor support, unlocked frame rates, and improved graphics that come with an increased level of details, field of view, and foliage draw distances. Based on the specs, modern gaming PCs will be able to support the game upon Days Gone's PC release. While Days Gone will be porting to the PC, it's hinted by Jim Ryan that there could be other exclusives that do the same.

A handful of PS4 exclusive titles were ported to PC last year, including Death Stranding and Horizon Zero Dawn, and according to Ryan, there was no significant "adverse reaction" from the PlayStation community at the time. Of course, that doesn't mean that all of the exclusive titles will be ported to PC. But the possibility remains open for some PlayStation exclusives to cross over to PC in the future.

For the time being, players who enjoyed the zombie game on consoles can look forward to its arrival on PC this spring. With the new information provided on Steam, PC players looking to play Days Gone will be able to make the necessary setup before its upcoming release.

Here are the official PC Systems Requirements as listed on Steam:
