We’ve seen the minimum system requirements and we’ve also gotten the benchmark application from Square, but now it’s time to unveil what your PC’s going to have to sport to enjoy the world of Eorzea in all its High Settings goodness.

| RAM | 4GB or more |
| HDD/SDD | Installation: 15GB of free space |
| Download: 6GB of free space on the drive containing “My Documents” | |

Well this certainly is interesting. I’m not a huge PC gamer but I am aware of the significance of all these required components mean to a lot of people. I mean, 4GB’s of RAM? Sounds a bit extreme if you ask me.
Question now lies in upgrading or opting for the PS3 version which isn’t even due out until later next year.
Hmmm… decisions, decisions.
