Apex Legends PC Requirements - Minimum and Recommended Specs to play


Apex Legends

Apex Legends is the most unique, and arguably best Battle Royale experience out there, with tons of new content coming soon. Season 16 is on the horizon, and Date Night is live with a fantastic new Limited-time mode for you to try.

The game is available on all platforms, and crossplay is now enabled so you can play with your friends regardless. For PC Players though, here are the specs you need to get the best out of your games, and what you'll need to run it.

As games go, Apex is not one of the more demanding ones for a PC to run. However, if you do have the hardware, there are a ton of graphics settings you can use to make the game look even better, as the World is stunning in HD.
