What Are the PC System Requirements for Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries

Here are the system requirements for PC players looking to play Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries

You can engage in heavy combat, fire missiles at other Mechwarriors, and completing missions for the various factions at war throughout the galaxy in Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries. The game is only coming to PC, so you want to make sure your hardware is ready to handle every graphical detail the game throws at you.

Here are the minimum requirements for the game:

• Windows 7, 8 or 10 operating system
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 or an AMD Radeon R9 280X graphics card
• Intel Core i3-7100 or an AMD Ryzen 3 1200 processor
• 8GB of Ram
• DirectX Version 11
• 55GB of storage on your hard drive

For the most optimal settings to play the game smoothly, you will want to have:

• Windows 7, 8 or 10 operating system
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 or an AMD RX Vega 56 graphics card
• Intel Core i7-6700K or an AMD Ryzen 7 1700 processor
• 16GB of Ram
• DirectX Version 11
• 55GB of storage on your hard drive

You want to make sure you watch your graphics card for this game. A GeForce 1070 will be able to handle the graphical demand of the game, and anything better would be ready to blow it out of the water. However, if you’re leaning on the minimum requirements, you may notice a severe lack of gameplay quality while playing Mechwarrior 5.

The action in Mechwarrior 5 is intense. It features giant mechs running around gorgeous maps, destroying buildings and burning environments while they fight it out, attempting to be the last one standing. This massive action could weight done PCs lacking in a processor or graphics, so you may want to watch the graphical settings before jumping into your first mission.

If you’re good to go in the hardware department, though, then you have nothing to fear. Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries releases Dec. 10.
