Alan Wake 2 PC Requirements Recommended Maximum Minimum

Alan Wake 2 is almost here – originally due out on October 17, developer Remedy Entertainment delayed it earlier this year to its new release date of October 27. With less than a week to go, the studio has released the PC specs required to run Alan Wake 2 and it looks like you're going to need a beefy system to play it. 

Here are the PC specifications for Alan Wake 2

Below, we'll break down the requirements for both ray-tracing modes and non-ray tracing.

Below are the ray-tracing requirements for Alan Wake 2 on PC:

  • GPU: GeForce RTX 3070/Radeon RX 6800 XT
  • VRAM: 8 GB
  • DLSS/FSR2: Quality
  • CPU: Ryzen 7 3700X or Intel equivalent

  • DLSS/FSR2: Quality
  • CPU: Ryzen 7 3700X or Intel equivalent
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • OS: Windows 10/11, 64-bit
  • Storage:  90 GB SSD

Ray-tracing High with Path Tracing On – 2160p/60FPS

  • GPU: GeForce RTX 4080
  • VRAM: 16 GB
  • DLSS/FSR2: Performance
  • CPU: Ryzen 7 3700X or Intel equivalent
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • OS: Windows 10/11, 64-bit
  • Storage: 90 GB SSD

As you can see, even the minimum PC specifications require a somewhat powerful GPU like the GeForce RXT 2060, and that and the associated specs only get you 1080p/30FPS in-game. For a 4K/60 FPS experience, you're going to need one of the most powerful GPUs on the market, doubly so for ray-tracing. Notably, no matter where your PC falls in the specification lineup, Alan Wake 2 requires an SSD for storage. 

On the console side of things, both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X will have a 4K mode at 30FPS and a Performance mode that pushes the game to 60FPS. The performance mode will not be available on Xbox Series S, however. 

Alan Wake 2 hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on October 27.
