Supermassive Games has announced a new sci-fi survival horror game coming to PC in 2025. To celebrate, they've released the game's first trailer, which you can watch below. In addition, we've also received some official PC requirements, so let's take a look.
In Directive 8020, players will experience a gripping cinematic narrative and thrilling horror on a space mission to save humanity. Players must evade a deadly alien threat roaming the ship's dark corridors, intent on wiping out human life. Players must defeat their enemies using improvised weapons, lightning-fast reflexes, and stealth.
Although the developers have not revealed which engine they are using, we can assume it is either Unreal Engine 4 or 5. After all, both Until Dawn and The Quarry used UE4.
To run the game, PC gamers will need at least an Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 1600 with 16GB of RAM and an Nvidia RTX 2070 Super or AMD RX5700. The game also requires 70GB of free hard drive space. Additionally, the developers recommend using an SSD.
Supermassive Games recommends an Intel Core i5-12400F or AMD Ryzen 5 5600 with 16 GB RAM and an Nvidia RTX 3070 or AMD RX6800.
Unfortunately, we don't know the graphics settings, frame rates, and resolutions of these PC specs. We also don't know if the game supports NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, or Intel XeSS.
Enjoy the trailer and stay tuned for more!
