We recently reported that Guardians of Middle-Earth was released for PC last Thursday and today we'll give you a bit more information on the technical side of things.

If you've been keeping up to date you'll know the game was originally released digitally on console before coming to PC, and it's sure to interest both MOBA and Lord of the Rings fans. Anyway, enough chit-chat, let's see if you're PC stacks up to the Guardians of Middle-Earth System Requirements...

Guardians of Middle-Earth Minimum System Requirements

OS: Windows Vista 32-bit

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz or AMD Athlon X2 2.8 GHz 

RAM: 2GB System Memory

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS or AMD Radeon 3850

DX: DirectX 10

HDD: 8 GB Free Hard Drive Space

NET: Broadband Internet connection

OTHER: Windows XP and DirectX® 9.0c and below not supported

Guardians of Middle-Earth Recommended System Requirements

OS: Windows 7 64-bit

CPU: Intel Core i5 750 2.67 GHz or AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4GHz

RAM: 4GB System Memory

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 or AMD Radeon HD 6950

DX: DirectX 11

 

All of the above System requirements for Guardians of Middle-Earth seem fairly tame even at the recommended end of the spectrum. As you can see the trusty 8800 makes itself known, and the 2GB of RAM and reasonable CPU minimum requirements mean that if your rig's a few years old you'll still be able to run Guardians of Middle-Earth fairly comfortably. 

As I mentioned earlier Guardians of Middle-Earth went on sale yesterday, so if you can run it, give it a try.

This demanding for a MOBA game? I expected it to be playable on lower-end systems as well, considering that LoL, Dota 2, and HoN are playable on all PCs.

since the minimum requirements are low, you can still play it on low end PCs but the experience may not be that much graphically satisfying
