Below you can find all the technical stuff you’re looking for, and hopefully, you won’t need to upgrade your PCs, especially since finding CPUs and GPUs has been an exercise in frustration these past few months.

For both of these requirements, Capcom has stated that the resolution and frame rate is 1080p@60. The minimum specs are expected to see frame rate drops, while the recommended requirements should be fine.
There’s also a requirement for Ray-Tracing, which ups the GPU requirement to the Nvidia RTX 2060 or AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT or above.

The specs listed are much more demanding when compared against Resident Evil 7, but that’s to be expected. From what we’ve seen so far, the game looks to have a greater visual look. Capcom is looking to make sure that users don’t experience much if any performance-related issues when playing Resident Evil Village on PC.
Resident Evil Village will be released on May 7th, 2021, for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Google Stadia.
