Compatibility answer

Yes. Both the minimum and recommended tables specify 60 GB of SSD storage.

Official tier context

  • The capacity is the same across both tiers.
  • The requirement is not written as an HDD alternative.
  • Patches, shader caches, and save data may require extra free space beyond the listed install size.

How to use the specification

Install on an SSD and keep additional headroom; do not plan around exactly 60 GB of total free disk space.

Benchmark boundary

The official requirement table names hardware tiers but does not publish a final resolution, frame-rate, graphics-preset, or upscaling target for each tier. These pages help buyers compare the named components without pretending the list is a benchmark.

Do not convert a component name into an invented FPS claim. After launch, this page should add driver version, resolution, preset, upscaling mode, crowded-scene lows, and traversal stutter results from a repeatable test route.

What is not confirmed

The final download size, compression, and day-one patch size can still change.

This boundary is deliberate: the page can answer its named question now without pretending to be a launch walkthrough. It will be expanded only when official patch notes or reproducible play evidence adds a new, useful answer.

Source and verification

Official editions and system requirements page. Checked 2026-07-25. The wording on this page paraphrases the source and separates published facts from details that require the final game.
