Microsoft could be holding it back until the last possible second while still getting it out the door in 2021. Meanwhile, its Steam page has been updated, and the system requirements are in. They seem pretty high for a game whose graphics people were making fun of not that long ago, especially for one that will have free-to-play multiplayer and you'd expect to make accommodations for a wide spectrum of PC gaming. Got to get those player numbers up. 

The minimum requirements call for an AMD RX 570 or an Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti graphics card, while the recommended specs call for a Radeon RX 5700 XT or an Nvidia RTX 2070. Pretty hefty for a game that'll run on the base Xbox One. At least it only wants 50GB of space, which seems small by 2021 standards.

Anyway, let's get right to the numbers.
