As we brace ourselves for the long awaited Tomb Raider reboot, Crystal Dynamics have released the specifications of the game for those who prefer Tomb Raiding on their PC. Tomb Raider for the PC is being handled by Nixxes, the very same developer who churned out excellent PC versions of Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Hitman: Absolution, and it will be enhanced by a bunch of features such as “full integration with Steamworks, increased detail tessellation, improved SSAO and post-filter effects, and very high resolution textures, shadows and cloths“. In short, it will look damn good as long as you’re packing adequate hardware.
Here’s a quick look at the system requirements:

- Windows XP Service Pack 3, Windows Vista,7,8 (32bit/64bit)
