Minecraft Legends is an upcoming action strategy game from Mojang Studios, Blackbird Interactive, and published by Xbox Game Studios. The title was revealed during the recent Xbox and Bethesda Showcase and is coming to Xbox platforms, as well as PC. Even though the title is slated for next year, plenty of details about it are available on the storefronts. Here are the Minecraft Legends System Requirements revealed during Steam.
Minecraft Legends System Requirements
To play the game on PC, you need the following specifications.
Minecraft Legends Minimum Requirements
- Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
- OS: Windows 10 (November 2019 Update or higher), 8 or 7 (64-bit with the latest updates; some functionality not supported on Windows 7 and 8)
- Processor: Core i5 2.8GHz or equivalent
- Memory: 8 GB RAM
- Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 or equivalent DX11 GPU
- DirectX: Version 11
- Storage: 8 GB available space
- Additional Notes: Performance increases with higher-end systems. Not supported on Windows 10S.
Minecraft Legends Recommended Requirements
- Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
- OS: Windows 10 (November 2019 Update or higher), 8 or 7 (64-bit with the latest updates; some functionality not supported on Windows 7 and 8)
- Processor: Core i5 2.8GHz or equivalent
- Memory: 8 GB RAM
- Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 or equivalent DX11 GPU
- DirectX: Version 11
- Storage: 8 GB available space
- Additional Notes: Performance increases with higher-end systems. Not supported on Windows 10S.
Currently, both the Minimum and Recommended requirements have the same details.
This is likely an error that will be fixed. First off, Windows 7 is a supported OS, which is always nice to know beforehand, but some features might not be available on that version. If you’re looking to play the title at lower settings, you’ll need something like an “i5” with 2.8 GHz of clock speed. This could many any number of CPUs, but as a whole, it doesn’t seem that CPU intensive.
Apart from that, you’ll need something like a GTX 660, or an HD 7870, both of which are pretty old GPUs. The game only needs a total of 8 GB, which is pretty low.
