The Dead Space Remake developers have shared official PC requirements and 30/60 FPS modes for consoles via their social media page. The team has indicated that console owners can experience the game at 60 FPS by playing it in QHD (1440p) without ray tracing or at 30 FPS in 4K with ray tracing effects enabled.

PC Requirements

The Dead Space Remake developers have additionally provided both the minimum and recommended PC hardware requirements. The team did not indicate resolution or desired framerates with the specs and GPU-wise, they are unusually modest for a modern game with ray tracing effects nor have they responded to questions regarding ultra-wide support or game settings. Intel was absent from the listed GPUs but an Intel Arc A770 could potentially meet either the minimum or recommended specs given that it has been favorably compared to the cards that are listed there.

Minimum PC Specs

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X or Intel Core i5 8600
  • GPU: AMD RX 5700 or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070
  • Direct X: DX12
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • Storage: 50 GB

Recommended PC Specs

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • CPU: Ryzen 5 5600X or Intel Core i5 11600K
  • GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700XT or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070
  • Direct X: DX12
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • Storage: 50 GB

The Dead Space Remake team previously revealed a stunning 4K trailer in October 2022, but it is not known what hardware was used in its gameplay. NVIDIA also recently announced that this game would launch with support for DLSS 2, which should help the players if it turns out to have more demanding needs with high or ultra-type settings, and could assist with higher FPS when using RTX graphics cards. The Dead Space Remake launches on PC and consoles in ten days on January 27 and currently Steam is offering the second game for free with pre-orders.

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
