Mafia III PC System Requirements Announced

Arkham Fright: Spiteful Ian Bros. ORDERED Devs To Create MORE Bugs

Milohh No: Molyneux Trapped REAL CHILD In Xbox

Illubinati: Ian Ubisoft Turns EVERYTHING YOU LOVE Into Assassin's Creed

Those are the sorts of (untrue, I should stress) sensational headlines some games writers long for: sexy headlines of danger, mystery, and excitement. They'd be a lark, sure, but I'm still happy telling you something helpful and maybe giving you a wee smile then being on my way with a twinkle in my eye. So here, 2K have announced the PC system requirements for Mafia III [official site]. Perhaps you'll find that info useful.

The specs are not sensational. They don't confirm deep, dark secrets you've suspected all along. I hope you don't find them sexy. But they are useful, now that the new console generation boosting the prettiness of multiplatform games means we can't broadly assume that a PC built any time in the past six years will run everything just fine. So here, the specs for Hangar 13's open-world crime simulator:

INTEL CPU: I5-2500K
AMD CPU: AMD FX-8120
