The Great War: Western Front is an upcoming WW1 RTS game from Petroglyph and Frontier Foundry. The title is coming to PC in a few days, and we finally have more technical details about the release. Here are the official Great War Western Front System Requirements.
The Great War Western Front System Requirements
| Minimum | Recommended | Ultra | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Performance Goals | Average 30 FPS Low Preset Settings 1080p | Above 30 FPS Average High Preset Settings 1080P | Above 60 FPS Average Ultra High Preset Settings 1080p |
| CPU | AMD FX-8350 Intel Core i5-4590 | AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Intel Core i5-8600K | AMD Ryzen 7 2700 Intel Core i7-8700K |
| GPU | AMD Radeon R9 390 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 | AMD Radeon RX 580 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 1060 | AMD Radeon RX 5700XT NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 |
| RAM | 8 GB | 16 GB RAM | 16 GB |
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10/11 64-bit | Windows 10/11 64-bit |
| Storage | 13 GB SSD | 13 GB SSD | 13 GB SSD |
The above requirements target 1080p, and we’re a bit surprised by how demanding the title is. If you’re looking to play the ultra-high preset at 1080p and are hoping to get 60 FPS, you’ll need something like a Ryzen 7 2700 paired with a GTX 1080.
Apart from that, 16 GB of RAM is recommended, and you need a total of 13 GB of free space to install the title, and an SSD is recommended no matter what settings you play at.
1440p and 4K
If you’re looking to go a bit higher, though, the developers have also shared requirements for 1440p and 4K, which you can check out below.
| 1440p Recommended | 4K Recommended | |
|---|---|---|
| Performance Goals | Above 60 FPS Average Ultra High Preset Settings 1440p | Above 60 FPS Average Ultra High Preset Settings 4K |
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 5800X Intel Core i5-10600K | AMD Ryzen 9 5900X Intel Core i9-10900K |
| GPU | AMD RX 6700XT NVIDIA RTX 3070 | AMD RX 6900XT NVIDIA RTX 3090 |
| RAM | 8 GB | 16 GB RAM |
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10/11 64-bit |
| Storage | 13 GB SSD | 13 GB SSD |
As you can see, these are pretty steep, and if you’re planning to play on a 4K monitor, you’ll need something like a Ryzen 9 5900X paired with an RTX 3090.
The developers did mention FSR 1.0, but there isn’t any indication that this will include DLSS.
