Civilization 6 is almost here- with less than a month left to its release, fans are undoubtedly counting down the days to when they will be able to play the newest take on the ages old ‘one more turn’ formula. And now, Firaxis and 2K Games have revealed the system requirements necessary to run the game- for the Windows version, at least.
It turns out that you won’t need a whole lot to run this title at all- the minimum requirements, especially, seem to be particularly relaxed, which means that this game should see the kind of widespread adoption that its predecessor did. Even relatively older systems should be able to play the game without much issue, though if Civilization 6 is anything like Civilization 5, your CPU may chug and cause the game to run slower on turns later into the game.
You can check out the requirements for yourself below. Civilization 6 launches on October 21.
