For enthusiasts we really hope TurtleRock has gone the extra yards to give players with high end gaming rigs that surpass the recommended requirements something to boast about. We know the game will be 4K ready at launch but we have our fingers crossed that the game will have some ‘Ultra’ setting pre-sets that will make full use of a GTX 970 or 980.
