System requirements released for Mirror's Edge Catalyst

Electronic Arts have released the minimum and recommended requirements for the PC version of Mirror’s Edge Catalyst. See them below:

MINIMUM

• OS: Windows® 7 64-Bit (use the latest Service Pack)
• CPU: Intel i3-3250 / AMD FX-6350. (Note: Mirror's Edge Catalyst requires at least 4 logical cores to run.)
• RAM: 6 GB
• HARD DRIVE: At least 25 GB of free space
• VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 650 Ti 2GB or better / AMD Radeon™ R9 270x or better
• INPUT: Keyboard and mouse, dual analog controller

RECOMMENDED:

• OS: Windows® 10 64-Bit (use the latest Service Pack)
• CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 at 3.4 GHz / AMD FX-8350 at 4.0 GHz
• RAM: 16 GB
• HARD DRIVE: At least 25 GB of free space
• VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 970 4GB or better / AMD Radeon™ R9 280x 3GB or better
• INPUT: Keyboard and mouse, dual analog controller

Mirror’s Edge Catalyst runs on the Frostbite engine, recently used for Dragon Age: Inquisition and Battlefield 4. The specifications listed above are inconsistent with these games. The 270X is approximately 50%-80% faster than the 650 Ti in Battlefield 4, yet both are listed as the minimum required. Recommended specifications also have a similar issue. The GTX 970 is about 30% faster than the 280X and they are both recommended cards. Given these massive differences, we cannot be sure of the accuracy of the specifications.

Mirror’s Edge Catalyst will have a closed beta on April 22nd. It will be released on May 24th for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
