    Hey @kaidan_trash,

    As you noted, the system requirements do specify Windows 10 as the minimum required operating system to play the game.

    Below that I'm afraid we can't guarantee how well the game may perform, or whether it would even run.

I've played many of EAs newer games that say they need Windows 10 even thought they only use DX11, and they ran just fine out of the box perfectly on both Windows 7 and 8.1 so i expect this one to work just fine aswell. But there's no way to know for sure until someone tries it, i personally do not plan on picking this remastered edition up so that's for someone else to test. Steam should refund you if your playtime isn't over 2 hrs if it doesn't work.
