PC Specs Released For Mass Effect: Andromeda

Time to clear those seasons of Battlestar Galactica off the ol' hard drive.

Given its March 21st release date, Mass Effect: Andromeda is practically right around the corner.  As such, trailers, screenshots, and interviews are about to start flooding in, and ad spaces will soon be crammed with Bioware's alien worlds and their "romance-able" citizens.  

The most important marker in a AAA game's release cycle, though, is the customary announcement of "Minimum" and "Recommended" PC requirements.  How else are we supposed to know that our 2005 Lenovo won't quite make the cut, or that our custom-made, LED-ridden, $2,500 rig won't even break a sweat in the game's most chaotic moments?  The folks over at EA and Bioware just recently reached this milestone, and the results can be found below:

Mass Effect Andromeda Minimum System Requirements

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i5 3570 or AMD FX-6350
MEMORY: 8 GB RAM
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB, AMD Radeon 7850 2GB
HARD DRIVE: At least 55 GB of free space
DIRECTX: DirectX 11

Mass Effect Andromeda Recommended System Requirements

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i7-4790 or AMD FX-8350
MEMORY: 16 GB RAM
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GTX 1060 3GB, AMD RX 480 4GB
HARD DRIVE: At least 55 GB of free space
DIRECTX: DirectX 11

55 GB is a hefty request, but not totally uncommon these days.  Details are still sparse regarding Andromeda's four player online co-op, but at least we know what sorts of hardware upgrades we'll need before the game's release.
