Can't get into Mordor without a top-of-the-range graphics card! The developers of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum have raised the game's system requirements even further

After the developers of Daedalic Entertainment published the system requirements for The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, many gamers were surprised by its exaggerated figures. Especially considering the not-so-impressive graphics.

Well the game designers changed the requirements, but not in the way gamers would like. The system requirements got even higher! Now the column "minimum" contains RTX 3060 graphics card, and it's interesting, because the stealth action will work without ray tracing. And to take advantage of this option, you need a GPU at least RTX 4070.

Updated system requirements

  • Intel i7-4770 or AMD Ryzen 5 1600 CPU;
  • Graphics card - Nvidia RTX 3060 or AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT (8 GB) (previously: Nvidia GTX 1080 or RTX 2060)
  • 16 GB of RAM
  • Disk space - 45GB;
  • Optional: Windows 10/11, DirectX 11.

Recommended System Requirements

  • Processor - Intel i3-6100 or AMD Ryzen 5 2600;
  • Graphics card - RTX 4070 (with DLSS "Quality") or AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT (16GB) (previously it was: RTX 3080 (with DLSS "Quality"))
  • 32 GB of RAM

  • Optional: Windows 10/11, DirectX 12.
