The Overwatch 2 PvP beta kicks off on PC later today, allowing players the chance to see what’s new in the latest Hero shooter. If you’ve reached this page, chances are you’re wondering what the Overwatch 2 beta system requirements are so you know whether your PC can run it, or how you can expect the performance to be. So, let’s dive right into it.

Thanks to developer Blizzard Entertainment, we now know both the minimum and recommended system requirements for the Overwatch 2 PvP beta ahead of its release later today. The minimum requirements should be enough for you to play the game at 30 FPS, while the recommended is targeting 60 FPS on medium graphical settings.

Minimum System Requirements for Overwatch 2 Beta (30 FPS)

  • Operating system: Windows® 7 / Windows® 8 / Windows® 10 64-bit (latest Service Pack) Processor: Intel® Core™ i3 or AMD Phenom™ X3 8650 Video: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 600 series, AMD Radeon™ HD 7000 series Memory: 6 GB RAM Storage: 50 GB available hard drive space
  • Operating system: Windows® 10 64-bit (latest Service Pack) Processor: Intel® Core™ i7 or AMD Ryzen™ 5 Video: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1060 or AMD R9 380 Memory: 8 GB RAM Storage: 50 GB available hard drive space

It’s worth noting here that these system requirements for the beta aren’t guaranteed to be the same for the full game when it releases. Things could be tweaked and changed between then, which may result in the game being more demanding on your system, and thus pushing the minimum and recommended system requirements up further.
