‘The Evil Within’ Minimum PC Specs Are Still Scary
Bethesda has offered the minimum PC specs required to run The Evil Within, and they don’t look too different from what’s recommended. I know enough about GPUs to be surprised an i7 is recommended to run a game on lower settings, especially since — as many of you have been pointing out for some time now — this game doesn’t look particularly graphics intensive.
In related news, The Evil Within can now be pre-ordered, and pre-loading is available now on the platforms that offer it. You’ll need a decent head start to get that 40 GB install (on PC, PS4, Xbox One) finished in time for its Oct 14 arrival.
Minimum Specs:
OS: Windows 7/8.1
GPU: GTX 460 or an equivalent 1gb VRAM card
CPU: i7 or an equivalent 4+ core processor
RAM: 4 GB
HDD: 50 GB
The Evil Within arrives on PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One on October 14.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that The Blob director Chuck Russell has passed away at 74 years old.
Russell’s career began with his directorial debut, 1987’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.
The multihyphenate film director, screenwriter, and producer is best known for helming 1994 comedy The Mask starring Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner Eraser, and adventure spinoff The Scorpion King. The latter served as the first leading role for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The filmmaker left an indelible mark on horror with his ANOES sequel, 1988’s The Blob, and 2000’s Bless the Child.
Russell’s final film credit is 2024’s Witchboard remake starring Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), and Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”).
It marked Russell’s return to horror after a lengthy hiatus, and he shared sequel hopes to Bloody Disgusting in an interview ahead of the remake’s release: “I got to design the board with real mystical symbols and things that I know represent good and evil, and where that board takes us if the audiences respond to the film, and I hope they will; I know it’s out there for you guys, but the sequel is a world we’ll get to go a little further. That’s sure the intention.”
He also recently expressed interest in returning to the franchise that began his career.
TMZ notes that Russell passed away at his San Diego-area home.
We send our deepest condolences to Chuck Russell’s family, friends, and fans.
