New Benchmark?

Will there be a Stormblood Benchmark?

Someone still knows the releasetime of the Heavensward Benchmark?

There will be, they confirmed it I believe.

It'll probably drop at least a good month before release.

Probably be in May.

April 2015 was the release of the HW Benchmark, don't know the exact day/date. I assume we will see the storm blood benchmark around late/end of april or/and beginning of may.

My guess would be E3, is kinda late (1 week before the actual launch) but it would make sense

That makes the least sense.... The point of a benchmark is to see how well your system runs the game. If they release it at E3 that wouldn't give time for people to upgrade if they need to.

I agree with that, but I can't think of any other big event pre-release where they could announce it

Like someone said before, they released the Heavensward Benchmark in April so I won't be surprised they announce it in a Live Letter in April and say the date.

27/04/2015 was the date for the 3.0 Benchmark. So hopefully next month. Though I wouldn't be surprised if we wait longer as Yoshi-P is keen not to rush things.

With all concerns about the change of reqs, and a good number of pc players sitting on the 'minimum' spec tier and afraid to still be able to play, it is better it being released asap.
