If you’ve been on Steam forums, it’s likely you’ve noticed that players aren’t overly thrilled about The Forever Winter’s system specifications. They’re quite demanding, calling for a high-performance computer to operate smoothly. Here are the minimum and recommended system requirements for this extraction shooter!
