Before installing Overwatch 2, you should check whether your computer meets the game’s requirements and whether you have enough free disk space. Overwatch isn’t one of the most resource-intensive modern games, so you can run it even on a relatively low-end PC. In this guide, we’ve compiled the minimum and recommended system requirements for Overwatch, as well as details on the game’s file size, price, age, and other information.
Overwatch’s minimum system requirements allow you to run the game on a fairly old PC. You’ll need 64-bit Windows 10, at least 6 GB of RAM, and a graphics card on par with a GeForce GTX 600 or Radeon HD 7000.
For more stable performance, the developers recommend an Intel Core i7 or AMD Ryzen 5, 8 GB of RAM, and a graphics card no weaker than a GeForce GTX 1060, GTX 1650, Radeon R9 380, RX 6400, or Intel Arc A770.
In addition to PC, Overwatch is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2. The game is free to play, supports cross-play, and allows you to transfer your progress between platforms via Battle.net. We’ve covered how to download and play Overwatch on different consoles while preserving your progress in a separate article.
