Call of Duty: Vanguard PC System Requirements: Minimum and Recommended Specs.
Call of Duty: Vanguard releases November 5th, bringing players back to the world of World War II. Here are the system requirements for your PC, from minimum to recommended for a smooth game.
Call of Duty: Vanguard is set to release on consoles and PC this November, promising to take advantage of Modern Warfare's updated game engine. While players are still waiting for more information from the developers themselves, we already have a good idea of what it will take to launch a World War II themed shooter.
Vanguard will be sold to PC players exclusively on Battle.Net, the game launcher owned by Blizzard. With new mechanics introduced in this latest iteration, such as destructible terrain, this won't be the easiest game to run smoothly.
That said, with the first flavor of Vanguard from the Champion Hill alpha and multiplayer beta, here's an initial breakdown of what you'll need to get Vanguard up and running.
Vanguard will bring together operators from different fronts.
Minimum PC Specifications
Thanks to the official Vanguard website we were able to get an idea of what it takes to launch the first offerings of the game. Capable of supporting unlimited framerates and a low latency mode, Vanguard will naturally require some serious effort to maintain stability. Call of Duty games have also become infamous for their file size, with the beta itself weighing in at 45GB. Black Ops Cold War was over 170GB, so be prepared with hard drive space.
The minimum requirements are as follows:
- Processor : Intel Core i5-2500k / AMD Ryzen 5 1600X
- GRAPHICS : Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 2GB / GTX 1050Ti 4GB / AMD Radeon R9 380
- RAM : 8 GB
- OS : 64-bit Windows 10
Recommended PC Specs
If you happen to have some serious hardware under the hood of your PC, then you can take Vanguard to the next level. With an updated Modern Warfare engine, the latest addition to the Sledgehammer Games franchise is sure to rival the best-looking shooters on the FPS scene.
Here are the recommended requirements:
- Processor : Intel Core i7-4770k / AMD Ryzen 7 1800X
- GRAPHICS : Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 8GB / GTX 1660 6GB / AMD Radeon RX Vega 56
- RAM : 16 GB
- OS : 64-bit Windows 10
Vanguard launches November 5th.
While these specs are based on an inactive beta, this means they are subject to change with the release of the full game. We'll update this page when the official requirements are detailed, so be sure to check with us.
