Ubisoft has just announced the PC specifications for the upcoming South Park game. The requirements have come as a surprise for many PC gamers as the game seems to be quite demanding despite being only in 2D.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole is the second game in the South Park series and follows the critically acclaimed The Stick of Truth. It’s a direct sequel to the last game and is based on the South Park TV show. The new game will feature the same style of humor with plenty of fart jokes and the RPG gameplay.

It was originally announced in 2016 but had received several delays. Fortunately now we will receive the game this year, releasing on October 17th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
