**Death Stranding 2: System Requirements for PC**
As anticipation builds for the release of *Death Stranding 2* on March 19th, detailed system requirements for the PC version have been revealed, ensuring that most players won’t need high-end hardware to enjoy the game. The information comes directly from Nixxes’ communications manager Julian Huijbregts in a recent PlayStation blog post.
At the minimum end, players will require a mid-range graphics card and a budget CPU capable of running the game on low settings. Essential specs include 16GB of RAM and 150GB of SSD storage. This requirement for storage space is notable but manageable for most gaming setups, suggesting that high-performance rigs are not a prerequisite for experiencing Kojima Productions’ latest offering.
The game includes a range of graphical presets from low to high, alongside a “Portable” preset designed specifically for handheld devices. For those looking to maximize their gaming experience, *Death Stranding 2* supports various upscaling technologies, including NVIDIA DLSS 4, AMD FSR 4, and Intel XESS 2. Players with compatible hardware will benefit from enhanced visuals thanks to these upscaling features.
An exciting aspect of this release is the introduction of Guerilla Games’ “Progressive Image Compositor” (Pico) upscaling technology, which is now integrated into the Decima engine. This technique allows for improved image quality, and it can work in tandem with the game’s frame generation options, providing players with multiple ways to achieve enhanced graphics.
Additionally, the game supports ultrawide aspect ratios, promising an immersive visual experience. While the focus on storage may be a concern for some, the overall system requirements are designed to accommodate a wide range of PCs, alleviating fears of needing to upgrade for an enjoyable experience.
As we eagerly await its arrival, players can rest assured that *Death Stranding 2* will be accessible to many, without the need for an expensive new gaming rig. The excitement continues to build as we anticipate how stunningly the game will translate to PC on March 19th.
