Atomic Heart, a BioShock -esque game with a Soviet Russia setting, is releasing for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on February 21. Next-gen console users, except Xbox Series S, will have the option to choose between two different modes.
But what should PC players expect? In a recent interview, the developer revealed extremely-detailed system requirements for PC. The hardware demanded isn’t very high if you plan to play on 1080p resolution. Of course, things change when you aim for a higher resolution.

PC players should be happy to know that the game will compile shaders at first launch. However, they can skip it if they want to jump into the action fast. We won’t recommend skipping it though as it may cause stutter. You can read the transcript of the entire interview over here.
