Starcraft 2 system specs emerge

Specifications for Starcraft 2 have leaꦿked out of Blizzard HQ and are unusually high...♌ for Blizzard, at least.

Blizzard has been previously renowned for releasing games that will run on even the most antiquated compu🧔te꧒rs, with the success of World of Warcraft partially credited to its meagre demands on player systems.

The requirements are ripped straight out🌞 of a preview from Spanish games rag Micromania, according to a poster on a Starcraft 2.

Blizzard has yet to coꦦnfirm the specs, so far only confirming that the game will require Pixel Shader 2.0. Here's the list:
