Battlefield 2042 is definitely a looker. From what we have seen, the game seems to have incredible visuals. But those visuals come at a cost. The developer of the game, DICE, has revealed that the game will have an open beta next week. However, PC players must make sure their machines can run the game.
The updated system requirements for the open beta have been revealed, and boy, they are quite high. These new requirements are not to be confused with the one released last month. The old requirements are outdated and no longer relevant.
The beta will only run on Windows 10 64-bit. It will also require 100 GB of free storage space. Keep in mind that we are talking about just the beta. The main game could be much bigger in size. An HDD will work, but an SSD is highly recommended.
