Check out the God of War Ragnarok PC requirements

Sony Santa Monica and Nixxes revealed the God of War Ragnarok PC requirements ahead of the action game’s September 2024 launch, and they’re pretty demanding – if you want the best possible settings, anyway. You can get by with older hardware just fine and still manage 30fps at 1080p, though you need more than a little extra space on your drive.

God of War Ragnarok takes 190GB – double the size of its PS5 version – and as with most modern games, you’ll want to install it on an SSD instead of an old-fashioned HDD. It's worth the space, though. In our God of War Ragnarok review, we called it a candidate for our favorite game of the generation.

We’ve listed the God of War Ragnarok PC requirements for each of the game’s settings below, with a breakdown of what extra features you can toggle to get more out of your system.

God of War Ragnarok on PC also includes support for:

• Nvidia DLSS 3.7 
• AMD FSR 3.1 
• Intel XeSS 1.3

Each of those uses frame generation technology that lets you play at higher resolutions without sacrificing framerates. DLSS and FSR are almost identical in most cases, so just tinker around with both to see which one works best for you.

God of War Ragnarok’s PC port launches on September 19, 2024, for Steam. Pre-orders are open now, and if you do decide to pre-order, you’ll get a new outfit for Kratos and one for Atreus as well.
