Death Stranding 2 PC Specs Revealed: What You Need for March 19
Walking through the haunting, fractured landscapes of Kojima’s mind isn’t just about getting from point A to B. It’s about feeling the weight of the world on your back while the tar bubbles around your boots.
The tension is thick, and the atmosphere practically leaks out of your screen. With Playstation, Kojima Production and Nixxes revealing the System Requirements for Death Stranding 2 on PC!
Packing Your Rig For The Journey
Now that Death Stranding 2: On The Beach is hitting PC on March 19, 2026, it’s time to prep your setup. Nixxes and Kojima Productions finally dropped the system requirements. The good news? You don’t need a supercomputer from the future to take your first steps.
If you’re still rocking an older setup, a humble GTX 1660 and an Intel Core i3-10100 will get you out the door. That covers the Low preset at 1080p, which is totally fine if you just want to experience the story. They even threw in a “Portable” preset specifically for handheld gaming devices.
But if you want to push this visual masterpiece to its limits, you’ll need serious firepower. Hitting that sweet 4K at 60 FPS on the Very High preset demands an RTX 4080 or the new Radeon RX 9070 XT. Whatever hardware you pack, you absolutely need 16GB of RAM and a staggering 150GB of SSD space.

Cutting-Edge Tech For A Smoother Trek
You aren’t just relying on raw horsepower to render these massive environments. The PC port is packed with the latest upscaling tricks, including NVIDIA DLSS 4, AMD FSR 4, and Intel XeSS 2.
This means you can squeeze out better frame rates without turning the gorgeous scenery into mush.
There’s also a brand new toy to play with called Pico, or Progressive Image Compositor. Guerrilla Games built this upscaler for the Decima engine, and it’s the exact same tech the PS5 version uses. You can run it on any supported graphics card and even stack it with frame generation options.
Stretching The Horizon
If you own an ultrawide monitor, you’re in for an absolute treat. Every cutscene is meticulously built for a 21:9 aspect ratio, giving you that authentic cinematic feel. Gameplay stretches even further, fully supporting massive 32:9 displays to let you soak in the view.
Don’t have an ultrawide monitor? No sweat. You can force the widescreen aspect ratio on standard 16:9 displays to get that cinematic letterbox look. PlayStation 5 players aren’t left behind either, as they’ll get an update for 21:9 support on the exact same day.
Connecting The Final Strands
March 19th is right around the corner, and the PC version looks like the definitive way to experience Sam’s next grueling trek. Make sure you clear out that SSD space now, because a 150GB download is going to take a minute. If you link your PlayStation account, you’ll even score some neat PlayStation-inspired Porter wear to show off.
Keep on keeping on, and make sure your hardware is ready for the long road ahead!
