Call of Duty: Vanguard’s PC specs have officially been revealed, giving players an idea of just how beefy their rig will need to be to venture into its alternate vision of WWII. Pre-loading time has also been announced, which will help you play as soon as the game releases on November 5.The big takeaways are that you can still miraculously get away with a CPU as low as an Intel Core i3-4340 or AMD FX-6300. If you want WWII to look its finest in 4K, however, you’ll need a much more recent Intel Core i9-9900K/AMD Ryzen 9 3900X.As previously reported, Vanguard will take up considerably less storage space than earlier Call of Duty games. You’ll need a minimum of 36GB if you just want to play multiplayer and zombies mode, but getting 4K assets will cost you “up to 64 GB” or up to 32 GB with Vanguard’s Hi-Rez Assets Cache feature, which streams high-resolution assets.Read below for the full list of PC spec requirements for Call of Duty: Vanguard.Operating SystemMinimum: Windows 10 64-bit (latest update)Recommended/Competitive/Ultra 4K: Windows 10 64-bit (latest update) or Windows 11 64-bit (latest update)CPUMinimum: Intel Core i3-4340 or AMD FX-6300Recommended: Intel Core i5-2500K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600XCompetitive: Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 7 1800XUltra 4K: Intel Core i9-9900K or AMD Ryzen 9 3900XRAMMinimum: 8 GBRecommended: 12 GBCompetitive/Ultra 4K: 16 GBStorage Space**Minimum: 36 GB at launch (Multiplayer and Zombies only)Recommended/Competitive/Ultra 4K: 61 GB at launchHi-Rez Assets CacheMinimum/Recommended/Competitive: Up to 32 GBUltra 4K: Up to 64 GBHi-Rez Assets Cache is optional disk space that can be used to stream high-resolution assets.
