The system requirements that appeared on the Ubisoft store (1.5 GHz processor, 512 MB or RAM, broadband for multiplay) and quickly spreaded to the official forums are not final. Fabrice posted the following in the new forums: "Another US PR "mishandling"... The sys req for H5 have not yet been established. Please disregard these values." A few weeks ago, Ubisoft's U.S. Web site also mentionned a release date somewhere in March, even if the producer himself didn't commit to any target date.

No real surprise on these rumored requirements, with the possible exception of the 512 MB of RAM. Age of Empires 3, which was released in late 2005, only required 256 MB. But let's wait for the final specifications.
