The upcoming game Tales of the Shire has announced its minimum system requirements, confirming that players will be able to run it even on entry-level machines or even, humorously, on a potato. The game, set in a Hobbit-like world, has specifications that suggest users with older graphics cards, such as the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 or the Radeon R9 270X, will be able to enjoy the experience.

Despite some criticisms regarding its previous demo, which was said to lack identity and substance, the upcoming launch on July 29, 2025 holds promise for players looking to explore a cozy Hobbit life simulation.
Play the game on whatever setup you have, as long as it isn’t completely outdated.
