Stardock releases Star Control: Origins’ PC system requirements
Followers of Star Control will know that the game isn’t the most graphically advanced games in the world, focusing on a simplistic art style that is designed to run on low-spec PC hardware, even on machines with integrated graphics.
In Star Control: Origins, players explore the galaxy inside one of humanity’s first interstellar ships, forging alliances before facing a threat which promises to exterminate humanity as it reaches towards the stars. Players will interact with alien races, explore the universe, design and build ships, uncover relics and precursor artefacts and battle against hostile races.
Star Control: origins is designed with accessibility in mind, which means that PC gamers shouldn’t expect Crysis levels of system requirements of graphical fidelity. The game’s CPU requirements ask for a quad-core processor, at least 4GB of system memory (8GB is recommended) and a DirectX 11 compliant graphics card. Stardock has confirmed that a Vulkan API update will release for the game post-launch, though at this time it is unknown what else this planned API update will bring to the game.
