Marathon's Hardware Requirements

On Marathon's Steam page, the hardware requirements for the PC version of the game have been disclosed. If you're worried that you'll need a high-end setup to run everything properly, you can rest assured: the recommended graphics card is a GeForce RTX 2060, a very reasonable request, so to speak. Bungie must have done an excellent job of optimization (or decided to rely heavily on DLSS...).
