Those are some pretty beefy recommended specs. It’ll be interesting to see how quickly mods outpace them.
The minimums seem fairly reasonable, though.
I was about to disagree, then I realized I was looking at the minimum specs rather than the recommended. They do seem pretty intense but I also forget that the 2080ti and the 9700k are nearing 5 years old
Actually cant wait for this. CS1 takes a stupid amount when you go nuts with mods.
Its been known to take at least 50GB ram because of Unity. Luckily this one is on Unreal Engine.No, the trailer had Unreal Engine assets used but CS2 will still be a Unity powered game: https://www.gamepressure.com/newsroom/cities-skylines-2-is-powered-by-unity-players-convince-thats-good/zd521e
