PC gamers should start stocking up on their thermal underwear as Capcom is all set to unleash a chilly demo of their once considered Xbox 360 exclusive shooter, Lost Planet, on the 15th of May.


For those who’ve just emerged from their basement, here’s what you can look forward too in the PC port:

The PC version will feature enhanced graphics and effects to optimize the realistic presentation and explosive action in the game, including better shadows and more detailed textures, as well as higher monitor resolutions. In addition, the game will support multiplayer modes for up to 16 players online via the internet as well as LAN connections. Lost Planet for PC will run under Windows XP (supporting DirectX 9) and Windows Vista (supporting both DirectX 9 and DirectX 10.) The DirectX 10 version will utilize the advanced features of Shader model 4.0 and Geometry Shader only available with DirectX 10.

The full version will be available in June and will be one of the first Direct X 10 games to hit the market.
