All in all the specs are pretty great, and it looks like gamers with PC systems from 2011 will be able to play Bethesda's new Fallout. This isn't exactly a surprise as Bethsoft has admitted to having to "water down" the game's graphics to fit the open-world scope and fluid FPS mechanics. Fallout 4 will reportedly last for about 400 hours per playthrough, and Todd Howard said that the game "feels like a modern shooter".

The studio also revealed that digital copies of Fallout 4 will become available at exactly 12:01 am on November 10. The game will also be anywhere from 28GB to 35GB on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, depending on the region and language support.

Bethsoft has also released the latest SPECIAL video that highlights the merits of Intelligence, which you can check out below.
