Shenmue III is an upcoming action-adventure game developed by Neilo and Ys Net. The game is finally coming to PC and consoles this year and is being published by Deep Silver. Now the official Shenmue 3 PC System Requirements have been listed for PC.

The game has been part of an on-going controversy, after it was revealed to be an Epic Store Exclusive for PC, despite being marketed for Steam during its Kickstarter campaign.

Shenmue 3 PC System Requirements

If you’re looking to run this game on PC, you’ll need the following specifications

Minimum

  • OS: Windows 7 64-bit or Newer
  • Processor: Intel Core i5-4460 (3.4GHz) Quad-core or Better
  • Memory: 4GB
  • Graphics: Nvidia Geforce 650 Ti 2GB or better
  • API: DirectX 11
  • Storage: 100GB
  • Network: Broadband Connection Required
  • Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c Compatible

Recommended

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-7700 (3.6GHz) Quad-core or Better
  • Memory: 16GB
  • Graphics: Nvidia Geforce 1070 or better
  • API: DirectX 11
  • Storage: 100GB
  • Network: Broadband Connection Required
  • Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c Compatible

This is a pretty demanding game according to these requirements. You’ll need a minimum quad-core i5 to run this title and a fairly decent GPU like the GTX 1070 if you’re looking to max out the game. The main surprise, however, is the storage requirement, which is a whopping 100 GB. Even games like Red Dead Redemption 2 don’t require much in total.

This leads to questions whether the game’s optimization isn’t all that good, because very high storage sizes are an indicator of that. The game also requires a constant internet connection, which could very well indicate that it will have denuvo.

Shenmue 3 Release Date

The game is headed to PC and PS4 on 19th November 2019.
