Update: EA has sent out a notification that the 32GB RAM recommendation has been reduced to 16GB, and is now indicated as such on the Origin page. It didn't say why the change was made, but I've asked and will update again if I receive a reply.

Original post:

The system requirements for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order are now up on the Origin game page, and if you're hoping to play at recommended settings then you better be packing a lot of RAM in your rig.

The recommended specs are pretty high-end all the way around, but 32GB of RAM is a real eye-popper. Time flies and things change, but this is the first time I can recall seeing that number thrown around. At a glance, Gears 5, Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Division 2, Borderlands 3, and Control all top out at 16GB, even at the "Elite Ultra" spec in the case of Breakpoint. Making it even more surprising is that the minimum required hardware is quite accessible, and comes in lower than the nearly two-year-old Final Fantasy 15.

The requirements page doesn't suggest what kind of performance players can expect at either level, but I would expect (or at least hope) that if you're running at or higher than the Vader machine, it should basically be like having your monitor plugged into a tiny little ILM lab.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order comes out on November 15.
