Microsoft Unveils Halo Infinite System Requirements

Halo Infinite


Halo Infinite is to become the showcase game for the Xbox Series X, but the PC will also be used at the start. Now Microsoft has revealed what the system requirements are like. The game can already run on old hardware, but Xbox Series X level is recommended.

Halo Infinite on the PC with moderate hardware

The Halo saga has been continuing for 20 years, with Halo Infinite on December 8, 2021, opening the next chapter on Xbox Series X and PC. Those interested in going into battles with Master Chief away from the console can now get an idea of ​​what the hardware required for this excursion. Microsoft recently updated the system requirements for Halo Infinite on Steam.

The minimum requirements for the title are moderate. The AMD FX-8370 and Intel i5-4440 models are recommended for the processor, both chips are many years old. The same applies to the two graphics card candidates AMD RX 570 and Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti, which were already in the middle class when they were released. When it comes to storage, the new Halo wants at least 8 GB of RAM and 50 GB on the hard drive.

Xbox Series X-level

Looking at the “recommendation” by Microsoft for the Halo Infinite course shows a different picture – here the company operates as expected at the level of the Xbox Series X. When it comes to the processor, AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and Intel i7-9700k are good candidates, i.e. models from 2019 and 2018, respectively. Radeon RX 5700 XT and Nvidia RTX 2070, both from 2019, are the recommended graphics cards. Last but not least, the RAM requirement is increased to 16 GB.

Microsoft emphasizes in its announcement that Halo Infinite was also developed “from the ground up” for the PC. Features that underline this claim are extended graphics settings, support for ultra-wide screens – in addition to 21: 9 also 32: 9 – and functions such as “dynamic scaling” and variable frame rate (VRR).
