Remedy's coveted Alan Wake Remastered is only a week away, and the cult classic has never looked better. From brand new textures to enhanced character models, visiting the eerie town of Bright Falls is sure to feel like a new but familiar experience. Thankfully, despite receiving an overhaul, the spruced up supernatural horror's required PC settings aren't as unsettling as the game itself.
If you're planning on switching out the original Alan Wake's 8GB install for the remastered version, you'll want to free up around 36GB on your Red Dead Redemption 2.
It's safe to say that even if you're rocking a slightly older rig, you'll probably be able to run Alan Wake Remastered. Better still, all RTX GPUs have the potential to run the game at 4K resolution and 60fps, thanks to Nvidia DLSS. That said, if you're still using a GTX graphics card as your daily driver, you'll still be able to experience this new adventure, albeit with lower settings.
In addition to the specs listed below, you'll also need an updated version of Windows 10 and DirectX 12 .

Alan Wake Remastered comes without boost fps at a respectable resolution.
On the AMD side of things, Alan Wake Remastered can run on an AMD RX 470, but recommends the more recent AMD 5600 XT. The game also doesn't feature for FidelityFX Super Resolution, AMD's answer to DLSS, so Radeon cards will have to handle native resolutions while using traditional settings tweaks to tailor performance.
