Wildgate requirements on PC

To run the Wildgate system requirements, you will only need an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU, an Intel Core i5-4440 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 15GB of HDD or SSD space.

When it comes to entry-level requirements, the Wildgate PC requirements are exceptionally low for a 2025 release, and the storage space demands are but a shadow of its gameplay counterpart: Sea of Thieves. 

The Wildgate minimum requirements only call for a 4GB+ VRAM graphics card like the AMD Radeon RX 570, or the Intel Arc A380, paired with an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 processor and 8GB of RAM. If you're gaming laptop or PC isn't running 16GB of RAM at this point, you should really consider an upgrade if you want to play just about any modern 3D game. 

As for the Wildgate recommended specs, there's a bit of a jump in demands, requiring an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 or AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT GPU, with an Intel Core i7-9700K or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X CPU, and 16GB of RAM. 

Technically speaking, you don't actually require Windows 10 or above to get the game running (although this is an exception on Steam, where Windows 10 OS is a hard requirement for all games), but the developer does warn that consistent performance or support for in-game bugs won't be possible on older operating systems.
