Electronic Arts has revealed the official configurations to run the next series of Battlefield on PC. The required components are more efficient than those specified for Battlefield 4, while both games exploit the same graphics engine (Frostbite 3).
Next installment of the popular FPS game from Electronic Arts, Battlefield Hardline is available in playable open beta today for all players on all platforms. Recall that this trial period will end on 8 February.
To mark the arrival of this multiplayer demo, EA has released the minimum and recommended configurations to run the game on the PC. The players of Battlefield 4 will be somewhat surprised, since the reported components are more efficient than the previous game from DICE.
Yet this new game uses the same graphics engine, namely the Frostbite 3.0. In addition, the publisher said that players who try the open beta with 4GB of RAM may experience performance reasons. EA has actually said that the optimizations are still required for computers to smaller components.
