ArcheAge Chronicles system requirements

Well, if you thought the Monster Hunter Wilds system requirements were high, brace yourself for the ArcheAge Chronicles PC requirements, because they are the most demanding specs we've seen of any game in 2024 bar maybe Alan Wake 2 and inZoi. You'll definitely need a new mid-range to high-end PC that's less than 5 years old if you have any intentions on playing ArcheAge Chronicles.

In order to meet the entry level ArcheAge Chronicles minimum requirements, you'll need an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER graphics card, an AMD Ryzen 5 5600 processor, and 16GB of RAM. Those are some eye-watering requirements just to get a game up and running, to the point one has to wonder if hardware optimization is going to be implemented somewhere further down the road in order to make the game more accessible (much as Alan Wake 2 did with their March 2024 patch).

Now, if you want to play ArcheAge Chronicles at its absolute best and meet the ArcheAge Chronicles recommended specs, you'll need an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti GPU, an Intel Core i7-12700 CPU, and 32GB of RAM. That's some serious firepower.
