Following the impressive Starfield showcase last night, Bethesda have also revealed the first details on performance and download size and PC system requirements. On the official Starfield page on Steam, the publisher state that you'll need at least 125 GB of storage space, which is quite massive, but so is Starfield, to be fair.
The minimum specs don't look too scary but things do get a bit demanding when we take a look at the recommended section, which lists Radeon RX 6800 XT and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080.
Keep in mind that the recommended specs are probably for High settings at 1080p so you'll need a lot more power if you plan on playing at higher resolutions and graphical presets.
