Namco Bandai has revealed the minimum and recommended system requirements for the PC version of upcoming role-playing game Dark Souls II. The game launches April 25, and From Software has promised that it will include "increased texture resolution" and an "enhanced frame-rate option."

　　The system requirements--which don't look too taxing--come from the game's Steam product page. According to the page, Dark Souls II will take up 14GB of hard drive space. By comparison, Respawn Entertainment's upcoming multiplayer shooter Titanfall will require a 50GB install.
