WRC 6 Archives – Thumbsticks

WRC 6 launches on October 7, 2016, but can you play it, and will your favourite steering wheel peripheral work? We're used to system requirement posts coming out for games in the run-in to their release. It's the one opportunity for console owners to feel a sense of smugness over their PC counterparts, safe in the knowledge they don't have to trouble themselves with such trivial details. The WRC 6 system requirements, however, include a PS4 and Xbox One component; we'll get to that soon enough. First things first, the WRC 6 system requirements for PC gamers: WRC 6 system requirements – minimum specs Operating System: Windows® 7 64bits Processor: Intel® Core i3 / AMD Phenom™ II X2 Memory: 4 GB RAM Graphics: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 650 / AMD Radeon™ HD 7750 DirectX: Version 11 Storage: 20 GB available space Sound Card: DirectX Compatible Soundcard The game also requires an Internet connection and a Free Steam account to activate. Minimum system requirements allow the game to run at 720p resolution at 30 frames per second, with all visual effects on lowest settings. WRC 6 system requirements – recommended specs Operating System: Windows® 10 64bits Processor: Intel® Core i5 / AMD FX 8150 Memory: 8 GB RAM Graphics: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX780 / AMD Radeon™ R9 290 2 GB DirectX: Version 11 Network: Broadband Internet connection Storage: 20 GB available space Sound Card: DirectX Compatible Soundcard The game also requires an Internet connection and a Free Steam account to activate. Recommended system requirements allow the game to run at 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second, with all visual effects on default settings. Including what the WRC 6 system requirements equate to in real terms, of screen resolutions and target frames per second figures, is a really lovely touch. Well done on that score, Bigben Interactive. Now, onto those somewhat irregular spec notes for PS4 and Xbox One; here are the steering wheel peripherals that are tested as compatible with WRC 6: WRC 6 supported steering wheels – PS4 Logitech G29 Thrustmaster T80 Thrustmaster T100 Thrustmaster T150 RS Thrustmaster T300 + RS (GT) Thrustmaster T300 + TM Leather 28 GT Thrustmaster T30 + PS Thrustmaster T300 + 599XX EVO Alcantra Edition Thrustmaster T300 + Ferrari GTE (Ferrari 458 Challenge Edition) Thrustmaster T300 + Ferrari F1 Thrustmaster T500 + RS (GT) Thrustmaster T500 + TM Leather 28 GT Thrustmaster T500 + PS Thrustmaster T500 + 599XX EVO Alcantara Edition WRC 6 supported steering wheels – Xbox One Logitech G920 Thrustmaster TX + RS (GT) Thrustmaster TX + TM Leather 28 GT Thrustmaster TX + Ferrari 458 Italia Edition Thrustmaster TX + 599XX EVO Alcantara Edition Thrustmaster TX + Ferrari GTE (Ferrari 458 Challenge Edition) Thrustmaster TX + Ferrari F1 Thrustmaster Ferrari 458 Spider Racing Wheel Thrustmaster T3PA Pro Add-On Thrustmaster T3PA Thrustmaster TMX Force Feedback Fanatec ClubSport Wheel Base V2 Fanatec ClubSport Steering Wheel Porsche 918 RSR Fanatec CSR Wheel Don't think you're getting away that easily though, PC gamers. WRC 6 supported steering wheels - PC Logitech G25 Logitech Driving Force GT Logitech MOMO Racing Force Logitech G27 Logitech G29 Logitech G920 Thrustmaster T100 Thrustmaster T150 RS Thrustmaster T300 + PS Thrustmaster T300 + Ferrari 458 Italia Edition Thrustmaster T300 + 599XX EVO Alcantara Edition Thrustmaster T300 + Ferrari GTE (Ferrari 458 Challenge Edition) Thrustmaster T300 + Ferrari F1 Thrustmaster T500 + RS (GT) Wow, that was quite a list. The word 'Thrustmaster' starts to seem rather bizarre when you write it 31 times. It's also worth pointing out that those are all the options that are listed as officially supported, but you may have success with other models. As ever, your mileage may vary. Pick up WRC 6 from Amazon.
