Kojima Productions didn't share the recommended specs for a 1440p setup, but as a guess, it's probably something like an Intel i7-4790k and an 8GB 1070 for Intel, and for AMD maybe a Ryzen 5 2600 and an 8GB RX 5700 depending on your refresh rate. And even that might be overkill. It's tough to say without playing the PC build, but at the end of the day it's a PS4 port, so it won't be too heavy. Most everyone should be able to hit 60 FPS without much trouble.
Along with the recommended specs, we also got a small update on the previously teased Half-Life content coming to the PC port. "A familiar face has crossed over into the world of Death Stranding," the studio says, "impersonating Bridges’ employees and sending request emails prompting Sam to locate and secure companion cubes throughout the world. Completing these requests will reveal the mystery behind the friendly imposter and award Sam with useful new equipment and accessories."
Here's a look of some of that in action:
