NetherRealm Studios has revealed the PC system requirements necessary to run Mortal Kombat X. How much do you need to be packing in order to pull off shocking fatalities that make real football players walk away from the TV? Let’s take a look at the specs courtesy of Steam.

For just a fighting game, the recommended settings look a bit on the high-end. However, looking at actual game footage and the amazing detail of the fatalities, it’s no surprise that a powerful rig is necessary to make the game look great.
Compared to other triple-A titles like Assassin’s Creed Unity, the minimum settings seem a lot more plausible. Forcing a 4 GHz processor as a bare minimum does seems a bit unrealistic, especially if that’s also in the recommended column.
Mortal Kombat X is published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and will release for PC and consoles on April 14th.
