The pre-order bonuses, as well as the specification requirements for the PC, have been officially revealed by video game developer Namco Bandai for its upcoming two-dimensional fighting game, "Dragon Ball FighterZ." This gives PC players enough time to check if their systems are in dire need of an upgrade in order to play the game without bumping into technical difficulties along the way.

In a tweet released by the official Twitter page of Bandai Namco U.S., it announces that the bare minimum requirements in order for players to run the game are any Windows operating system from Windows 7 and up. However, a 64 bit operating system is a must, since the game will not run on a 32 bit.

As for the necessary processors, players would need at least an AMD FX-4350, a 4.2 GHz Intel core i5-3470, or a 3.20 GHz with 4 GB of RAM. The minimum requirement for video cards are the Radeon HD 6870, 1 GB/GeForce GTX 650 Ti, and 1GB DirectX 11. Notably, the video game will not be needing a souped-up video card in order to run, but in order to have the best in-game experience, the higher the video card the better.

Of course, PC systems will be needing DirectX compatibility for the hardware's soundcard, or an on-board chipset. Fortunately, this requirement is already standard, and can be found in most PC hardware or midtier laptops. 

Players who have pre-purchased the game will be getting previously unannounced bonuses. These include early access to the game's special characters, such as a Super Saiyan Blue costume for Goku and Vegeta, as well as some exclusive avatars for those who would want to show off in the match-making lobby for online battles. 

"Dragon Ball FighterZ" will be released on Jan. 26 for the PC, the Xbox One, and the PlayStation 4.
