The Blood of Dawnwalker PC Requirements Revealed | The Outerhaven

Developer Rebel Wolves has revealed the official PC requirements for The Blood of Dawnwalker, and the specs are a bit of a mixed bag, if I’m being honest. At the lower end of things, the requirements aren’t too unreasonable for a modern open-world RPG, with the minimum target aiming for native 1080p at 30 FPS on Low settings. However, things climb quickly once you move into High and Ultra territory. Native 1440p/60 FPS on Ultra calls for an RTX 4080 or AMD RX 7900 XTX, while native 4K/60 FPS on...

In this teaser we can hear an alarming going on, with a loud thundering sound coming from outside. Then, suddenly a door that heads to an outside location opens up, making way to a phone used for emer...
