If you are thinking of playing Apex Legends on PC, for the first time or returning, it might be a good idea to check the requirements.

The game might not have the highest graphics level in the market, but you will need some processing power because of the extensive maps a battle royale game entails.

Here is all the information you need to know if your rig is capable of running Respawn's title.

Keep in mind the storage space specified in the chart might not be the same since the game is constantly receiving new content, increasing the game's size.

We presume the other requirements will always remain the same unless the game's engine receives an overhaul or any significant graphical update.

Do you need a good PC to run Apex Legends?

As we indicated before, Apex Legends is not a difficult game to run. The minimum requirements list a processor released in 2015 and a Nvidia graphics card from 2012.

Part of that is because of its graphics style, which doesn't require high-end hardware to run. However, you'll still need a separate graphics card, so running the game with a standard integrated graphics card might not be a good idea.

One thing most people recommend, and even the game's official page, is to meet the recommended requirements to play at 60 fps. With the game having a fast-paced nature, this will allow to be able to respond and play better against the competition.
