Space Marine 2 system requirements

Can I run Space Marine 2?

To run the Space Marine 2 system requirements, you will need an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 GPU, an Intel Core i5-8600K CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 75GB of SSD space.

With a return to the epic carnage of the Ultramarines comes a new set of hardware requirements for Warhammer 40000 Space Marine 2. Despite how graphically impressive the gameplay appears to be, the actual Space Marine 2 PC requirements are much lower than anticipated.

In order to meet the Space Marine 2 minimum requirements, you will need at least an AMD Radeon RX 580 graphics card, an AMD Ryzen 5 2600X processor, and 8GB of RAM. This is more than enough to get you started on the lower end of the graphics settings, but you'll definitely want to aim higher if you want to stomp see the blood of the Tyrannid threat really glisten on your power armour.

To really revel in the majesty and horror of the 40k universe and meet the Space Marine 2 recommended specs, you'll need an NVIDIA RTX 3070 GPU, an Intel Core i7-12700 CPU, and 16GB of RAM. At this level of hardware, you'll be able to meet the "Ultra" graphics preset, and achieve 60FPS on 1920x1080 monitors.

Space Marine 2 size

The Warhammer 40000 Space Marine 2 download size for PC is 75GB of SSD space. Console versions of the game require far less space, needing only 55GB of HD space on PS5 and 59GB on Xbox. 

HDDs are becoming increasingly obsolete for major games releases, so it's no surprise that you'll need an SSD to play the game. Of course, installing the game on an SSD also means you'll get the best performance anyway.
