PC Minimum Requirements

I'm genuinely curious about the PC requirements for Star Wars Zero Company. The minimum GPU requirement is listed as a GTX 1080, RX 5600 XT, or Intel Arc B580 for 1080p Low at 30 FPS. For a turn-ba...

    Hey there,

    It is a completely fair question! When we think of turn-based strategy games, we usually expect them to run on practically any machine.

    However, the hardware requirements for Star Wars: Zero Company directly reflect the studio team's visual goals and the complex simulation running under the hood. Here is a look at what is driving those PC specifications:

    • Engine & Physics: The game is built to utilize advanced physics and destructible environments. When environments shatter or dynamic cover changes occur during a battle, the CPU and GPU are constantly performing real-time calculations.
    • Visual Fidelity & AI: The game features high-budget cinematic presentation, highly detailed character models, and complex AI planning logic that requires more hardware headroom than a traditional grid-based tactics game.

    The listed minimum requirements are designed to provide a solid baseline for stable, comfortable gameplay at native 1080p/30 FPS. Hopefully, this helps explain what is going on under the hood! Also: https://www.ea.com/games/starwars/zero-company/news/answering-biggest-questions 

    Thanks!
