Read the specification table correctly

The publisher lists a 64-bit Windows 10/11 system, DirectX 12, broadband internet and 100 GB of storage. An SSD is recommended. The table below preserves the listed minimum and recommended components.

The minimum target is Full HD at the Very Low preset; the recommended target is Full HD at Low. “Recommended” is therefore not a promise of Ultra settings or a particular frame rate. Busy battles can behave differently from an empty starting area.

Before installing

  • Compare your CPU, GPU and graphics memory separately; a laptop model name alone does not identify its hardware.
  • Confirm that the drive you selected has the listed free space plus working room for updates.
  • Use the official launcher and install updates offered by your hardware vendor.
  • Connect to reliable broadband and allow the launcher to finish patching before troubleshooting game performance.

Find a comfortable baseline

As an editorial setup method, begin at the preset associated with your hardware tier. Change one setting at a time, then return to the same area to compare the result. Lower resolution or rendering quality when movement is consistently choppy.

Test camera turns, combat effects and a populated area before deciding that the setup is stable. Close unnecessary background programs and watch for heat or memory pressure during longer sessions. Avoid downloading unverified “FPS fix” packages.
