What Starlink: Battle for Atlas is
Starlink: Battle for Atlas is an adventure game developed by Ubisoft Toronto and released in 2018. It was published by Ubisoft Entertainment. It is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Snowdrop.
The premise, in the publisher's words
You choose your pilot, hull, wings and weapons, combine them to build a custom starship and lock it into place atop your game controller. As you pilot your way to a nearby planet within the Atlas Star System, you sense you’re not alone. Suddenly, three enemy ships emerge from a nearby astreroid field and it becomes very clear you are not welcome. You try to fight them off, but realize your current loadout isn’t working in this situation. You make a lightning-fast decision, swap out your wings and weapons on the fly and re-engage, as another epic battle begins to save the galaxy from Grax and the Forgotten Legion.

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-2500K 3.3 GHz, AMD FX-6350 3.9 GHz, 8 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7850. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 23GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against

All of them reviewed better. It arrived 5 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Return of the Obra Dinn, Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
