The WWE 2K18 system requirements have been revealed. Those with keen memories will recognise this is the second set of WWE 2K system requirements in the last 10 months. That's because we're usually thrown a PC port months after the console version. Not so this year - WWE 2K18 is out on PC day and date with the console release. It promises to feature the sweatiest grappling yet, but if you to see Seth Rollins lank locks in all their soggy detail you're going to need a PC up to the task. Here are the official WWE 2K18 PC system requirements.

WWE 2K18 Minimum System Requirements

  • OS: Windows 7 64-bit 
  • CPU: Intel Core i3-3550 3.3 GHz or AMD FX-8150 3.6 GHz
  • RAM: 4 GB System Memory
  • GPU RAM: 2GB Video Memory
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 670 or AMD Radeon HD 7850
  • DX: DirectX 11
  • HDD: 50 GB Installation Size

WWE 2K18 Recommended System Requirements

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 3.4 GHz or AMD FX-8350 4.0 GHz
  • RAM: 8 GB System Memory
  • GPU RAM: 2 GB Video Memory
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 or AMD Radeon R9 290X
  • DX: DirectX 11
  • HDD: 50 GB Installation Size

Last year's WWE game saw a huge jump in system requirements; not so much this time around. WWE 2K18's PC system requirements are nearly the same as WWE 2K17. The only changes made are to the graphics cards. Both the minimum and recommended graphics cards are a step up or a generation up compared to WWE 2K17.

WWE 2K18's minimum specs are pretty light, although you'll now need a 2GB GeForce GTX 670 or Radeon HD 7850 rather than a 1GB GTX 660 or Radeon HD 7770. The only major thing to keep an eye for is the 50GB minimum install - WWE 2K18 is going to be a large download.

The recommended requirements for WWE 2K18 are pretty straightforward too. We're jumping a generation over WWE 2K17, moving from a GeForce GTX 770 or Radeon R9 290 up to a GTX 970 or R9 290X. Not the greatest of leaps, although it should hopefully contribute to some improved graphics in WWE 2K18.

As ever, remember you can always check out how well your PC can run the WWE 2K18 System Requirements here, where you can check benchmarking and performance from other users. Compare your graphics card to the WWE 2K18 GPU benchmark chart and we also have a WWE 2K18 Frame Per Second system performance chart for you to check.
