Resident Evil 2 system requirements

The Resident Evil 2 system requirements now require a DirectX 12 compatible graphics card, with Capcom also demanding you run the game on a Windows 10 gaming PC

What are the Resident Evil 2 system requirements? This remake has undergone some changes since the horror game remake shambled its way onto gaming PCs back in 2019. This is due to an upgrade patch that introduces ray tracing and several other features but also axes for DirectX 11, leading to a slight bump up in the minimum specs.

 

Here are the Resident Evil 2 system requirements:
