They've been updated, again.

The Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt system requirements have been updated once again. It still feels odd to type the words "battle royale" and "World of Darkness" in the same sentence but here I am and that's what I'm doing. Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt is a battle royale set in White Wolf's gothic-punk World of Darkness setting, due September 7 from developer Sharkmob.

You can see the original requirements on the Wayback Machine, and revised requirements were published after the closed alpha test. Now they've been revised again, so these are the latest specs direct from Bloodhunt's Steam page. The minimum RAM has dropped from 16 GB to 8 GB and other requirements have fallen as well. As you'd expect with a free-to-play game where you want as many people as possible to be able to play, Sharkmob are pushing Bloodhunt's requirements as low as possible.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt minimum system requirements

  • Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • Processor: Intel i5-7400 / AMD Ryzen 1300X or better

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt will be out on Steam on September 7. Sharkmob has said it will feature "no pay-to-win or similar mechanics" and that it's being made with a "player focused mentality."
