Hardware expectations

Maybe I missed it, but have there been discussions on the hardware requirement expectations to play this game once it launches? It would prove helpful as I know I'll be looking into a new laptop soon as others may have similar needs. Ronemi Adventurer at Large

Got this from the wiki. (https://chroniclesofelyria.gamepedia.com/FAQ/Game%26Engine)

Q. What sort of PC is required to play Chronicles of Elyria? Specific specs are not as yet known. However, it has been stated that if you can play ARK: Survival Evolved now, you are going to be safe to play Chronicles of Elyria, as they use the same game engine (Unreal Engine).[2]

Minimum Requirements (Estimated) :

Windows 7

1GB VRAM and DirectX 11 support

4GB RAM

2GHz Dual Core 64bit CPU

If you are looking for a laptop I would build higher than these requirements since the game is still in development and just from my experience no game is ever been optimized for the settings they advertise, at least not on the game very first launch.. Some thing could change and you may need a something a bit stronger or if you are not buying anything in the next 5 or 6 years after you buy that laptop I would push a bit higher just in case CoE has some updates down the line.

Sorry for necro-ing but they are developing on a 16GB GTX 970, i7 CPU.

Anything that is the above, or higher, will be able to run and use the game stable.
