Helldivers 2 devs Sony and Arrowhead released fairly modest PC specs for the game that launches in roughly a month. But wait, there is more! The game will also support crossplay at launch.
With the upcoming release of Helldivers 2 in February, it was only a matter of time before Sony and Arrowhead revealed which PC setup you need for playing the sci-fi shooter. On top, they confirmed that crossplay between PlayStation-Consoles and PC will be supported.
Helldivers 2 System Requirements Revealed
It is a bit unusual for a PlayStation-published game to also launch on another platform. This makes it even more exhilarating that PC and PlayStation players can defend their honor on Super Earth together from day one. If you are a Helldiver from the PC section, we got you covered.
See the minimum, recommended, performance and ultra system requirements you need to participate in the battle:
Minimum | Recommended | Performance | Ultra | |
OS | Windows 10/11 | Windows 10/11 | Windows 10/11 | Windows 10/11 |
CPU | Intel Core i7 4790K or AMD Ryzen 5 1500X | INTEL CORE 17-9700H or AMD RYZEN 7 3700X | INTEL CORE 15-12600K or AMD RYZEN 7 5800X3D | Intel Core i5-12600K or AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D |
GPU | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 TI or AMD Radeon RX 470 | NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 2060 or AMD RADEON RX 6600 XT | NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3070 or AMD RADEON RX 6800 | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX |

As you can see, the key requirements are fairly reasonable, with the GPU and CPU required for the recommended setting being a couple of years old. If your setup is a little bit more advanced, you should be able to enjoy your galactic fights with smooth graphics and a much higher frame rate than the displayed ones.
That's it for now. You can now start gathering your friends to build an undefeatable elite squad!
