Gotham Knights PC Recommended System Requirements
Gotham Knights has not matched A Plague Tale: Requiem in terms of recommended system requirements - at least not yet, as we are still waiting for the configuration for ultra settings.
We learned the recommended system requirements of Gotham Knights. WB Games Montreal revealed the recommended specs in a post on Twitter, an even week after the devs revealed the minimum configuration.
Already the minimum requirements have raised concerns among some Internet users about the "hardware-heavy" Gotham Knights. Apparently, they were justified, although, for the time being, they did without a GeForce RTX 3070 graphics card, as in the case of the second A Plague Tale. Instead, the developer recommends "only" RTX 2070 or Radeon RX 5700 XT.
However, Knights compared to A Plague Tale: Requiem are more demanding in terms of CPU power. Here a Ryzen 5 3600 was put in minimum, rather than the recommended specs, the latter including the Ryzen 5 5600X and the Core i7-10700K from Intel.
Probably this has to do with, among other things, the co-op option and the detailed open map of Gotham, which are also supposed to be the reason why Gotham Knights will not run at 60 frames per second on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 consoles (reportedly mainly because of Xbox Series S).

It is worth noting that in the case of Requiem we were talking about ultra graphic settings, and in this case it's "only" high. The former options are also to be found in the PC release of Gotham Knights. So it is possible that we will still see even newer Nvidia graphics cards in the game's system requirements - as long as the developers intend to reveal any additional specifications before the game's release, which has very little time left.
Gotham Knights will be released on October 21 on PC, Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5.
