While the listing was still up, the folks at Windows Central managed to capture a screen grab, including the system requirements for the PC version of the game.

In addition to Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, more Xbox One games are coming to the PC in the coming months. Killer Instinct is coming next month, with Quantum Break following up in April. As reported earlier this month, Microsoft may also be considering bringing Forza Motorsport 4, Gears of War 4, and Scalebound to the PC as well, but those titles haven’t been confirmed.
