Watch Dogs Available for Pre-Order on Steam: System Requirements Listed

Earlier today, Watch_Dogs, the eagerly awaited open-world action title from Ubisoft, became available for pre-order on Steam. The title comes with a 17% discount.

Apart from this, some PC minimum requirements have been detailed, but they aren't the final ones, according to a report from DSOgaming. Have a look at them below.

OS: Windows Vista (SP2), Windows 7 (SP1) or Windows 8 (Only 64 bit OSs will be supported.)

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 @ 2.66Ghz or AMD Phenom II X4 940 @ 3.0Ghz

Memory: 6 GB RAM

Graphics: DirectX 11 graphics card with 1 GB Video RAM – Nvidia Geforce GTX 460 or AMD Radeon HD 5770

DirectX: Version 11

Hard Drive: 25 GB available space

Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c Compatible Sound Card with Latest Drivers

Specs from Jonathan Morin

The report from DSO goes on to point out that these were "EXACTLY the same specs that Watch_Dogs' creative director, Jonathan Morin, revealed on March 6th."

Here's what he revealed:

"IntelCore 2 Quad Q8400 2.66Ghz or AMDPhenom II X4 940 3.0Ghz, 6GB RAM, 1024 VRAM DirectX 11 Shader 5.0 SCard: DirectX9 25 GB."

Compare the two specs and you'll notice that Steam has used the same specs mentioned by Morin. So these are outdated specs and the final ones are expected to be out sometime soon.
