Shadow Warrior 3, the latest entry in the comedy-based action franchise, launches worldwide on March 1. The game will be available on both consoles and PC. But unlike consoles, PC players have to make sure that their hardware can run the game.
The developer, Flying Wild Hog, has revealed the official PC system requirements of the game. Thankfully, they seem quite reasonable. If you're on Windows 7, you don't need to upgrade the OS to play Shadow Warrior 3. Of course, Windows 10 is recommended for better performance. Regardless, make sure that your machine is running a 64-bit OS, and has 8 GB of RAM and 31 GB of free storage space.
To run the game at 30 FPS 1080p with low graphics settings, you need an AMD Phenom II X4 965 or Intel Core i5-3470. For GPU, you should be good with a GeForce GTX 760 or Radeon R7 260X.
Want 60 FPS 1080p with high graphics settings? You will need more decent hardware. CPU requirement is increased to an AMD Ryzen 7 2700 or an Intel Core i7-6950X. You also need to pair it with a GeForce GTX 1080 or Radeon RX 5700 minimum.
