Rocksteady and Warner Bros. have posted the official system requirements for Batman: Arkham City on the PC platform, detailing just how the computer of PC gamers needs to look like if they want to experience the new Batman title.

Batman: Arkham City was expected by legions of gamers, and delivered on lots of its promises last week, when it appeared for consoles like the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360.

Now, PC gamers need to wait until next month, after Rocksteady, its developer, and Warner Bros., its publisher, announced back in September that the game's PC version is delayed, without giving any sort of concrete reason.

Until November, when it's finally going to be released, the two companies have posted the minimum and recommended PC system requirements for Arkham City, which you can check out below.
