PC System Analysis For Death Stranding Requirements

Death Stranding requires a Radeon RX 590 8GB graphics card with a Core i7-3770 4-Core 3.4GHz or Ryzen R5 1600 processor to reach the recommended specs, achieving high graphics setting on 1080p. Death Stranding needs a Core i5-3470 3.2GHz or Ryzen R3 1200 processor coupled with a GeForce GTX 1050 to get it to run minimum system requirements. This will return around 30FPS at 720p screen res on low graphics settings, but you can also adjust the settings further to tweak. Minimum RAM requirements are 8 GB system memory. Your graphics card will need to be capable of running DirectX 12. In short you need a 5 year old PC for best Death Stranding performance.
