BioWare revealed today the system requirements and recommended settings for playing Mass Effect 2 on PC – as you can imagine, they’re pretty hefty.
Additionally, rather than requiring PC owners to authenticate their copy via a strict online DRM, if you pick up the boxed retail version, you will be able to simply enter a key code and be subject to a disc check.
DRM details and Official rig spec lists below.
Press Release:
Digital Rights Management (DRM) - The boxed/retail PC version of Mass Effect 2 will use only a basic disk check and it will not require online authentication. This is the same method as Dragon Age: Origins. Digital versions will use the retailers’ protection system.
