From the looks of it, both the minimum and recommended requirements for BF5 aren’t all that surprising. In fact, they’re not that much more substantial than the requirements for Battlefield 1. 

Per EA: 

Battlefield 5 Minimum PC Requirements

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8. 1 and Windows 10 Processor (AMD): AMD FX-8350 Processor (Intel): Core i5 6600K Memory: 8GB RAM Graphics card (NVIDIA): NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 1050 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 2GB Graphics card (AMD): AMD Radeon RX 560 / HD 7850 2GB DirectX: 11. 0 Compatible video card or equivalent Hard-drive space: 50GB

OS: 64-bit Windows 10 or later Processor (AMD): AMD Ryzen 3 1300X Processor (Intel): Intel Core i7 4790 or equivalent Memory: 12GB RAM Graphics card (NVIDIA): NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Graphics card (AMD): AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB DirectX: 11. 1 Compatible video card or equivalent Hard-drive Space: 50GB

However, if you’re one of the lucky few who’s already picked up a ray tracing capable Nvidia graphics card (such as the GTX 2070, GTX 2080, or GTX 2080Ti), then your system’s recommended requirements are going to have to be just a tad beefier: 

OS: 64-bit Windows 10 October 2018 Update (1809) Processor (AMD): AMD Ryzen 7 2700 Processor (Intel): Intel Core i7 8700 Memory: 16GB RAM Graphics card (NVIDIA): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 DirectX: DirectX Raytracing Compatible video card Available Disk Space: 50GB

Outside of the 20 series card itself, you’re bound to experience the most wallet strain on the 4GB RAM increase and processor. But if you’re interested in running DXR, you probably already have a pretty hefty rig. 

This announcement came ahead of the just-released Battlefield 5 maps trailer, which shows off the game’s nine maps.
