After being announced at Gamescom and pointing to February 2025 for its launch, today is the day on which the PC requirements for Civilization VII. A game that seeks to renew itself and promote technology, although it will do it in its own way. It is normal to think that it is a game that will not be a problem for the vast majority of teams, but as it is a game that will come to Xbox Series X|S consoles and not Xbox One, some questions may arise.
Through its different social networks, have released the information that allows us to know what are the PC requirements for Civilization VII, adding interesting information, since up to three quality levels are described. From what is necessary, up to Ultra quality, above that typical recommended setting.
The PC requirements for Civilization VII show an accessible game, but also quite demanding
And everything is well broken down to know that the minimum you have to have to be able to play 1080p at 30fps and with the visual setting on low, it is a i3 10100 or Ryzen 3 1200, an Nvidia GTX 1050, AMD RX 460 or Arc A380 and 8GB of RAM. It doesn't seem like a very powerful device, but the Intel CPU can be a bit deceiving. If you are looking for a higher quality, such as raising the visual setting to Medium and playing it at 60fps, you would need at least a i5 10400 or Ryzen 5 3600X and an Nvidia RTX 2060, AMD RX6600 or Arc A750 and 16GB of RAM. We can already see that the game is going to have a certain demand to be able to take it to the maximum.
And as stated, to be able to play it at 4K quality Ultra and 60fps, what is required is an i7 14700F or a Ryzen 9 5950Xwhich are very powerful processors. As for the GPU, it requires a RTX 4070 or a Radeon RX 7800XT and 32GB of RAM. A configuration that would not surprise us for any action game with dreamlike graphics. In any case, they require 20GB hard drive to install it, being something that does not seem too complicated, knowing that other games are demanding much more.
It can be intuited, in these PC requirements for Civilization VII, It is not going to be just another strategy game that is going to be demanding if you want to play it in its most beautiful visual setting. We could even intuit that the console version aims to be at that recommended setting, without considering resolution issues, due to the visual setting that, if set higher, seems to require more. And it is something that you should consider, considering that it now has growing competition, which has been joined by the game that is on Game Pass, Ara: History Untold.
But what really matters is knowing that it can be played, either on current consoles, or on a PC, for which we have to wait until February 11, 2025.
