Tango Gameworks has revealed the detailed PC system requirements for Ghostwire: Tokyo. While the game can run relatively well on older, low-end hardware, the requirements ramp up significantly, especially when raytracing is involved.

Ghostwire: Tokyo is all set to hit PC, Xbox Series S|X and PlayStation 5 on March 25. The game's developer, Tokyo-based Tango Gameworks, has now posted the game's system requirements for PC. Strictly speaking, the game's requirements aren't particularly outrageous, but it borders on that territory once the visual fidelity and resolution are upped, especially with raytracing thrown in the mix.

The bare minimum hardware demanded by Ghostwire: Tokyo is an Intel Core i7-4770K/AMD Ryzen 5 1600 processor coupled with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060/AMD Radeon RX 5500XT graphics card. Alternatively, any graphics card with at least 6 GB of video memory will suffice. Other requirements include 12 GB of system memory, 20 GB of storage, Windows 10 and DirectX 12. This configuration will guarantee at least 30 FPS at 720p with "Low" graphics settings.

To play Ghostwire: Tokyo at 4K 30 FPS without raytracing, one needs an AMD Ryzen 5 5600/Intel Core i7-8700, Radeon RX 6800/Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 Super, and 16 GB of RAM. With raytracing enabled, the graphics card requirement shoots up to a GeForce RTX 3080/Radeon RX 6900XT, but everything else remains the same. The official Ghostwire: Tokyo Twitter handle clarifies by stating that 30 FPS is the "target" resolution, and one can play around with the settings to squeeze out a few more frames.
