Bethesda's "Dishonored 2" is just one week away from its official release, and the system requirements for the game have been recently announced.

Along with the gone gold announcement from Bethesda, the developers also released a complete rundown of the minimum and recommended system settings required to run "Dishonored 2." For the best gaming experience, players must take note of the following system requirements from Bethesda, which reads:

Minimum:

Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit versions); Intel Core i5-2400/AMD FX-8320 or better
8 GB RAM; 60 GB free HDD space; NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB/AMD Radeon HD 7970 3GB or better
Contains a single disc. Download of additional files from Steam is required to run the game.
Requires Steam activation.

Recommended:

Windows 10 (64-bit versions); Intel Core i7-4770/AMD FX-8350 or better
16 GB RAM; 60 GB free HDD space; NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB/AMD Radeon RX 480 8GB or better
Contains a single disc. Download of additional files from Steam is required to run the game.
Requires Steam activation.

Meanwhile, when the game comes out next week, players might notice how one returning character's voice has changed. The mysterious creature responsible for giving hero Corvo Attano his powers in the game known as The Outsider comes back for the sequel, but he will be voiced a new actor. In the latest trailer, "Gotham" star Robin Lord Taylor gives life on the character as he narrates the story from the "Book of Karnaca."

Narrated by a more youthful-sounding Outsider, the video delves deeper into the complex world of Karnaca, the place where Empress Emily Kaldwin must go to reclaim the throne she rightfully owns. Although some fans did not like the casting change, there are still a lot of players who are willing to give Taylor a chance. For the uninitiated, voice actor Billy Lush previously voiced Outsider, but he was replaced by Taylor due to scheduling difficulties. However, Lush took to Reddit to refute the developer's statement about his exit, telling fans that he actually "got the axe."

"Dishonored 2" launches worldwide on Friday, Nov. 11 on PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One.
