Call of Duty: Warzone 2 system requirements for PC aren't a far cry from Modern Warfare 2 since the sequel is built on the same IW 9.0 engine. Fortunately, that means the minimum and recommended specs are pretty tame, but it's possible for the vast open battlefield and large lobbies to put a little more strain on your gaming PC.
With the Call of Duty Warzone 2 release date well behind us, we have the official system requirements from the developers at Infinity Ward. Since the first Warzone shared its specs with the 2019 Modern Warfare reboot, it's no surprise that the new battle royale keeps in step with the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 system requirements.
Here are the Warzone 2 system requirements
| Minimum | Recommended | |
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 64-bit |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | Intel Core i5 2500K AMD Ryzen 3 1200 |
Intel Core i7 4770 AMD Ryzen 5 1400 |
| RAM | 8GB | 12GB |
| GPU | Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 AMD Radeon RX 470 |
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 AMD Radeon RX 580 |
| VRAM | 2GB | 4GB |
| Storage | 125GB | 125GB |
It’s a small step up compared to the original Call of Duty Warzone system requirements, using the original game’s recommended specs as the new minimum. This means 11-year-old CPUs, like the Intel Core i5 2500K, and aging graphics cards, such as the Nvidia GeForce GTX 960, set the bar quite low for Warzone 2.
8GB of RAM means you don’t need the best gaming laptop to play it on-the-go, either, but you might want to upgrade to 12GB for a smoother experience. If you ran the first Warzone with a PC that matches the competitive requirements, you’ll already exceed Warzone 2’s recommended specs.
