The Steam page for Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition has outed the official system requirements. Previous comments from producer Daisuke Uchiyama regarding a lack of optimization for the PC port raised potential concerns, but it turns out the specifications are incredibly reasonable. Required is a 2.6GHz dual core CPU, plus either an ATI Radeon 4850 or 8800GT on the graphics card side. Here’s the full rundown:

OS: Windows XP , Windows Vista, Windows 7, or newer
Processor: 2.6 GHz Dual-Core
Memory: 1 GB (XP), 2GB (Vista/7)
Hard Disk Space: 4 GB
Video Card: 512 MB RAM, ATI Radeon 4850 or higher, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT or higher
DirectX®: 9.0c
Sound: Direct Sound Compatiblet

For the majority of PC gamers, running this title will be nothing more than a pushover. Sure, the inclusion of Games for Windows Live is a bit of a downer, but we’re just glad this making it to PC. Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition is due out on Steam August 24.
