Dead Rising 3 PC: Minimum And Recommended System Requirements Revealed

Capcom just announced Dead Rising 3 for our beloved platform PC. Want to know whether or not your PC will be able to run the game? here are the minimum and recommended PC specs for Dead Rising 3.

ZodTheRipper4381d ago (Edited 4381d ago )

Nice, I easily meet the recommended ones. DR3 was the only X1 exclusive I wanted to play last year so I'll probably get it sooner or later...should be enjoyable to play this without all the technical issues of the X1 version.

XiNarutoUzumaki4381d ago

This game was a great launch tittle. However, the game loses its survival feeling when you max out the character. I mean, having an overpowered character isn't always fun.

XiSasukeUchiha4380d ago

Oh I definitely agree with you, after playing it myself!

DevilOgreFish4380d ago (Edited 4380d ago )

"Recommended: For Watch Dogs.
OS: Windows Vista (SP2), Windows 7 (SP1) or Windows 8 (Please note that we only support 64 bit OSs.)
Processor: Eight core - Intel Core i7-3770 @3.5 GHz or AMD FX-8350 X8 @ 4 GHz
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Graphics: DirectX 11 graphics card with 2 GB Video RAM - Nvidia Geforce GTX 560 ti or AMD Radeon HD 7850
DirectX: Version 11
Hard Drive: 25 GB available space
Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c Compatible Sound Card with Latest Drivers"

Minimum System Requirements: Dead rising 3.
"OS: Windows 7 64-bit edition, Windows 8 64-bit edition
Processor: Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.30GHz (or Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 2.83GHz) / AMD Phenom II X4 945 @ 3.00 GHz or higher
Memory: 6 GB RAM
Hard Drive: 30 GB free
Video Card: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 570 / AMD Radeon 7870 or higher
DirectX: Version 11"

Dead Rising 3 is definitely more graphically intense than Watch dogs was. that's pretty sad for watch dogs.

Patrick_pk444380d ago

No, that's pretty sad for Dead Rising. Poor optimization makes a game more graphically intense. Watch Dogs itself looks better then Dead Rising.

Eonjay4381d ago

Um... it requires Windows 8?

2pacalypsenow4381d ago

OS: Windows 7 64-bit edition, Windows 8 64-bit edition

Eonjay4381d ago

Oh thanks I missed that

ninjahunter4381d ago

Nice, looks like the gtx 670 is consistently the way to go for this gen. Well at least as of yet.

Convas4381d ago

To be safe, I'm going to settle on a 4GB GTX 770.

If there's anything that should be able to carry you through this entire generation, it's a GTX 770.

RedCloud884381d ago

I built my new rig a few months back and choose a 4gb 770. So far I've had no problems with it.

--bienio--4381d ago

I will buy gtx780 6gb or gtx800? I'll see what will be in November to choose 😜

KontryBoy7064380d ago

@ --bienio-- I went ahead with the 780 6GB. By the time you wait and hope the 800 is coming out... then... wait some more for actual aftermarket cooler designs and proper drivers... how long will it be?

KontryBoy7064380d ago

670 is not "the way" it's on the edge.

sourav934381d ago

Whoa! A GTX 570/HD 7870 as a minimum requirement? That's a bit steep. Isn't the XBO's GPU much, much weaker than that? Heck, the minimum GPU requirement is even higher than Watch_Dogs...

ProjectVulcan4381d ago (Edited 4381d ago )

Remember how poorly the game actually runs on Xbox One.

1280 x 720, less than 30FPS, and lots of tearing.

It was a launch title which explains some of the problems on Xbox One, but Xbox One barely ran it so to get decent (say 1080p) performance on PC you'll need a much better system than Xbox One is.

GTX570 and Radeon 7870 are roughly twice as fast as Xbox One's GPU, so they should offer good performance on this game.

Allsystemgamer4381d ago

IF they optimize it properly that is lol

shmeedy246854381d ago

I'm glad PC gamers can experience this fun game. Hopefully PS4 owners can experience it soon but we'll see. Loved it on Xbox One and I may get it on PC when it's quite cheap.

This really needs a re-release. Enjoyed all 4 games with 3 probably being my second favourite.

ocelot07294d ago

It once was. But the recent DR1 remake took that spot.

Christopher293d ago

It's 2013! I'm on my Xbox One and streaming from my laptop to my chromecast! Life couldn't be better!

TheColbertinator293d ago

Now I can stream my Xbox One from my TV to my phone to my tablet while I'm inside my refrigerator.

monkey602293d ago

It's not even the best one 🤨

ocelot07293d ago

Surprised this didn't get a Series S/X boost. I believe it's still locked to 30fps. Then again so is the PC version until you go into the .ini file and change it.

MetroidFREAK21293d ago

Genuinely surprised this still hasn't been ported

What Happened To The Dead Rising Series?

Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.

Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...

Darksonic222128d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl2128d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

2128d ago
MadLad2128d ago

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic222128d ago

Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.

ColdSin2128d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

darthv722128d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad2128d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod882128d ago

They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.

DeadManMMX2128d ago

This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.

Gamerking822128d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18892128d ago

haha yes it may....good one.
