I'm going to be honest, IOI's focus on massive seamless open world areas with tons of detailed, intelligent NPCs is one of the few use cases for massive amounts of RAM that I find acceptable. Improving their systems from Hitman is vastly preferable to making the game look slightly shinier.

I wouldn't take it seriously. 1660 has 6gb while they list 8 as the min and the 3060ti has 8gb and they say recommended needs 12. Probably AI generated crap. Also, if it's going to be based on the hitman 3 engine, it'll run really well on most hardware. Hitman 3 Recommended Requirements - CPU: Intel CPU Core i7 4790 4 GHz - RAM: 16 GB - VIDEO CARD: Nvidia GPU GeForce GTX 1070 / AMD GPU Radeon RX Vega 56 8GB - DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 8192 MB An upgraded engine with RT will probably mean at least 3600/3060 for 1080/60.

Expect more titles to do this in order to push game streaming as a service. They have to do something with so that useless AI infrastructure.

Yep my pc can't even run it properly and I don't think it has modding. So am gonna pass on this.

Thanks. Out of those specs, what doesnt exist?

FWIW, Amazon bought the James Bond IP last year (and also owns MGM Studios as of 2022). The relationship between this game and Amazon may be nothing more than that.

So it's a game which is out of reach for many to play much less enjoy. Good luck on sales! Makes more sense to make games for the most common system type, like old school video game publishers used to do with consoles. This is just sloppy development and bad management rolled together.

The NPCs are a big part of what makes Hitman so great. A dlc where they create brand new routes for every NPC would be like playing a brand new game

Huh. So if games are just horribly optimized and hardware costs a fortune, it will push more people to cloud/streaming their games. The corporations just keep winning. What a wonderful timeline we live in.

> As expected, the i5-9500K doesn’t even exist, and despite recommending 12 GB of VRAM (video RAM), the publishers also recommended an RTX 3060 Ti, which strictly came with only 8 GB of VRAM. Not to mention the game also required 8 GB of VRAM at a minimum, but then also required a GTX 1660, which only has 6 GB of VRAM.

I personally doubt the dev team can make that 32gb requirement any lesser without a massive rework

In an effort to future-proof the game, they present-faulted it.

And no doubt an optimized version of the game will exist but only at the enterprise level for streaming providers.

Something tells me some marketing putz had Gen AI do this for them.

Diabolical.

That seems the most likely.

These specs were probably AI generated.

Don't remind me of my backlog...
