WARDOGS lists official PC system requirements on its store page. Because the game launched first on PC, through early access on 10 September 2026, these figures cover the Windows build. The announced PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions, which the studio has dated to 2028, do not have published specifications yet. The game requires a 64-bit processor and operating system and a broadband internet connection, since it is a multiplayer-only title.
Minimum
The minimum tier targets 1080p on Low settings at 60 frames per second or better.
Component | Minimum |

Processor | Intel Core i5 8600 or AMD Ryzen 5 3500 |
Memory | 16 GB RAM |
Graphics | Nvidia GTX 1660 or AMD Radeon RX 590 |
Storage | 50 GB available space |
Network | Broadband internet connection |
Target | 1080p Low at 60 fps or higher |
Recommended
The recommended tier targets 1440p on Medium settings at 70 frames per second or better, or 4K on Medium at 60 frames per second or better.

|---|---|
Operating system | Windows 11 |
Processor | Intel Core i7 12700K or AMD Ryzen 7 5700X |
Memory | 16 GB RAM |
Graphics | Nvidia RTX 3070 or AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT |
Storage | 50 GB available space |
Network | Broadband internet connection |
Target | 1440p Medium at 70 fps or higher, or 4K Medium at 60 fps or higher |
Notes
Both tiers ask for 16 GB of RAM and reserve the same 50 GB of storage, so neither memory nor install size separates them: the step up is the graphics card, the processor, and the move from Windows 10 to Windows 11. The published figures did not change at launch, and as of 11 September 2026 both tiers read exactly as they did on the pre-launch listing. Requirements may still change during early access as the game is optimised, and they apply to the PC version only.
Graphics Options
Beyond the two hardware tiers, the game exposes graphics options so players can tune it to their own machine, and the studio says it has continuously optimised across a wide range of hardware. Its performance breakdown walks through the extremes of those settings, labelling the low end Potato Mode and the high end Overkill Mode, and covers client performance, visual fidelity, and networking alongside them. The developers say testers consistently remark on how well the game already runs.
Store Listing Features
The store listing also declares a set of technical and platform features that sit outside the hardware tiers.
Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
Platforms | Windows only; the listing declares no macOS or Linux support |
Multiplayer | Online player-versus-player only; there is no offline or single-player mode |
Anti-cheat | Kernel-level anti-cheat, named on the listing as Elytra |
Achievements | Ten Steam achievements, added at the early access launch |
Accessibility | Four accessibility features are listed: camera comfort, custom volume controls, stereo sound, and surround sound |
Languages | Fourteen supported languages; English is the only one with full audio, and the other thirteen are interface only |
Interactive elements | In-game chat and online interactivity |
Family sharing | Supported |
Steam Deck | Compatibility has not been rated |
Controller support | Not supported; every controller and gamepad flag on the listing is switched off, re-checked after launch on 11 September 2026 |
Two of those listed features have more behind them than a single line. The kernel-level anti-cheat and the server browser that feeds every match are covered in detail, alongside player-run servers, under Servers and Anti-Cheat.
Linux and Cloud Streaming
The listing supports Windows alone. The studio has said it does not officially support Linux, has not committed to supporting it, and is still working on Proton compatibility, so anything that did run through a compatibility layer during testing was incidental rather than supported. The publisher separately lists the game as playable through cloud streaming on GeForce NOW.
