With eight days left before the launch of Life is Strange: Reunion, developer Deck Nine Games and publisher Square Enix have shared the detailed PC specifications, and on the surface, they're surprisingly high for this type of game. You'll need an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 or AMD Radeon 7900 XTX to play with the highest preset, "Hella High", at 4K and 30 frames per second.
However, looking back to the previous franchise installment, 2024's Life is Strange: Double Exposure, the specs are nearly identical. That game required the same GPUs to play at the highest preset, then simply called "Cinematic", at 4K@30FPS. So, this is nothing new for those who already got Double Exposure.
