What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for AMD Athlon 64 X2 EE 3800+ (2*2000 Mhz) or similar Intel CPU, such as Intel Pentium Dual Core E2180 (2*2000 Mhz), 2 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS or ATI Radeon X1950 Pro or better.

What it launched against
LEGO The Hobbit launched on 8 April 2014, within three weeks of Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, Child of Light, Infamous: Second Son and Monument Valley. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 1 year into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, Child of Light, Infamous: Second Son, Monument Valley.
