Dead Rising 3 will be coming to PC

One of the Xbox One's biggest exclusive launch titles was Dead Rising 3 but the game won't be staying console exclusive for much longer as Microsoft has revealed that the game will be making its way to PC. Now gamers will be able to enjoy the zombie slaying title at a resolution higher than 720p with upgraded textures and in most cases, a more stable framerate.

This is part of Microsoft's effort to bring Xbox and PC gaming closer together, the game's specifications were also leaked via the Steam database. It looks like PC games from now on will be demanding a 64 bit Operating System and at least 6GB of RAM.

Minimum System Requirements:

• OS: Windows 7 64-bit edition, Windows 8 64-bit edition
• Processor: Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.30GHz (or Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 2.83GHz) / AMD Phenom II X4 945 @ 3.00 GHz or higher
• Memory: 6 GB RAM
• Hard Drive: 30 GB free
• Video Card: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 570 / AMD Radeon 7870 or higher
• DirectX: Version 11
• Controller: Keyboard (international and standard), Mouse (up to 4 buttons), Xbox 360 PC compatible controller or compatible gamepad
• Connection: Broadband internet connection and Steam account required

Recommended System Requirements:

• OS: Windows 7 64-bit edition, Windows 8 64-bit edition
• Processor: Intel Core i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz or AMD equivalent Memory: 8 GB RAM
• Hard Drive: 30 GB free
• Video Card: NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 670 2GB / AMD Radeon 7970 2GB
• DirectX: Version 11.1 or greater

The game will come with higher resolution textures and some newer visuals made for widescreen monitors. The first two Dead Rising games are already on Steam so the third game will be a welcome addition.

KitGuru Says: Hopefully we'll see more Xbox One exclusives jump over to PC. Microsoft shouldn't neglect the PC market, after all- it does have the biggest catalogue of games and the most powerful hardware out of all available offerings on the market. Now lets just hope the port is good.  Will you guys be picking up Dead rising 3 on PC? Are you a fan of the other two games?
