The official minimum system requirements for Crysis Warhead have been revealed by EA’s online store. They are nearly identical to the minimum requirements of the original Crysis, with the only significant difference being a 3GB jump in required hard drive space.

Despite all this, Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli has repeatedly stated that Warhead has been “optimized to run better on a wider range of PCs.” We will have to wait till September 16 to find out.

Hit the jump for the specs.
