X4: Foundations releases on November 30th, will support Vulkan API, official PC system requirements


Egosoft has announced that the long awaited 4th part of the X series, X4: Foundations, will release on November 30th. In addition, the team has revealed the game’s official PC system requirements via its Steam store page.

X4: Foundations promises to feature an extremely large universe from day one, in which players will be able to manage an empire or explore space in first person. Players will be able to fly every ship, trade and fight to build their empire with modular station construction and think carefully when embarking on an epic journey.

According to the specs, PC gamers will at least need an Intel i5-4590 with 8GB of RAM and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 780/970. Egosoft recommends an Intel Core i7-6700K with 16GB of RAM and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 or AMD equivalent. It’s also worth noting that the game will support the Vulkan API, and that it require 12GB of free hard-disk space.
