With a blog post on the official Bethesda website, the teams at Bethesda and Arkane have announced that Dishonored 2 has gone gold ahead of its November 11 release date. On top of that, we also now have concrete information on the kind of rigs that will be able to run the PC version of the game, the kind of settings that version will offer, and the pre-load times and dates for the various platforms.

I'm always a tad surprise at how hefty the requirements of new games are, considering PlayStation 4 and Xbox One aren't exactly technical powerhouses, but that's probably also due to the fact that PC players generally want to run their games at higher framerates:

PC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

• Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit versions); Intel Core i5-2400/AMD FX-8320 or better
8 GB RAM; 60 GB free HDD space; NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB/AMD Radeon HD 7970 3GB or better Contains a single disc. Download of additional files from Steam is required to run the game. Requires Steam activation.
