Encamped within the remains of a long-lost civilization on the planet CYGNI, Earth forces are decimated by a surprise attack from a powerful, biomechanical, alien race.

The minimum specification calls for AMD R5 1600 / Intel i7 4790, 8 GB RAM and NVIDIA GTX Nvidia 1060 / AMD Radeon RX 580 (4GB+ of VRAM). An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 25GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
