Hogwarts Legacy, the highly anticipated game developed by Avalanche Software, has unveiled the system requirements for PC ahead of its February 10 release. The studio advises players to install the game on an SSD due to its storage demands of 85GB. It should be noted that the memory (RAM) requirements for the game are somewhat inconsistent. Even with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 graphics card, the minimum RAM needed to run Hogwarts Legacy on PC is 16GB, even at the lowest settings of 720p resolution and 30fps framerate.
While there is no specific mention of the spec sheet for Medium settings, it can be inferred that a GTX 1060 should be sufficient, considering the upgrade to an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti for High-quality presets. The GTX 1060 is also one of the most popular graphics cards according to Steam’s Hardware Survey. It is worth noting that Hogwarts Legacy will rely on Denuvo’s anti-piracy measure, which has been known to negatively impact game performance on PC. A recent example of this is the performance issues experienced by Gotham Knights, another WB Games title, which led to the temporary removal of DRM protection by the developers. Unfortunately, this opened the door for pirates to create unauthorized copies of the game.
