Full system requirements for SimCity reported on Mar-07-2012
We were expecting this, EA had a big relaunch up their sleaves and Maxis, the SimCity Series guys were going to be present at the Game Developers Conference 2012. An announcment of a SimCity Reboot was certainly on the cards. By all accounts this game is well into development and may be with us early next year.
There has been no mention of the title being SimCity 5 but rather a reboot of the SimCity line. We have managed to get our hands on the official SimCity system requirements already from our friends over in EA....

*Minimum of 256MB of on-board RAM and Shader 3.0 or better support.
