Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt’s PC system requirements have been updated • Eurogamer.net

Sharkmob has updated the system requirements for its upcoming vampire-themed battle royale, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt.

Confirmation comes following a closed alpha beta test for the free-to-play game which ended earlier today.

While previously it was recommended players used a GTX 970 or RX 590, now Sharkmob suggests players use either a GTX 1070, RX 5600 XT or better for graphics, and a SSD is “strongly recommended” even in the minimum spec. You’ll need around 20GB of storage, too.

Here’s the full specs as found on the game’s Steam storefront (thanks, TheGamer):

Minimum:

• Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
• OS: Windows 10 64-bit
• Processor: i5-8600 / Ryzen 1600X or better
• Memory: 16 GB RAM
• Graphics: GTX 1070 / RX 5600 XT or better
• DirectX: Version 11
• Network: Broadband Internet connection
• Storage: 20 GB available space
• Additional Notes: SSD Strongly Recommended

Recommended:

• Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
• OS: Windows 10 64-bit
• Processor: i7-8700K / Ryzen 5 3600X or better
• Memory: 16 GB RAM
• Graphics: RTX 2060 Super / RX 5700 XT or better
• DirectX: Version 11
• Storage: 20 GB available space
• Additional Notes: SSD Strongly Recommended

As yet, there’s no confirmed release date or even release window for Bloodhunt, with the Steam page only listing “TBA” (to be announced).

“[I’m] in two minds about Bloodhunt,” Bertie explained after spending some time with Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt. “It feels a bit thin as it is.

“There are nice ideas, and it looks smart, but I don’t think it’s enough to pull people from the heavyweight battle royales and keep them occupied for more than a weekend. Nevertheless, this is pre-alpha, and it’s a solid showing. It’s certainly worth keeping an eye on.”
