The upcoming PC version of Just Cause 2 will not run on Windows XP when it’s released on March 26th.
It is only DirectX10 compatible, meaning it will run on Windows Vista and Windows 7 but not Windows XP.
Over 40 per cent of computer owners still reportedly run the XP operating system.
The game will be released on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on March 26th.
