As Lost Ark’s western launch swiftly approaches, fans who’ve been patiently waiting for years to try out the free-to-play MMO are likely curious about its system requirements and PC specs.
The title features eye-catching visuals and flashy combat that might have some players worrying that their current hardware might not meet its system requirements. At the same time, Lost Ark will turn four this year, after fully releasing in South Korea towards the end of 2018, its age being reflected in its PC specs.
A lot of us are still using Nvidia’s 10-series cards or their AMD equivalent and the good news is that you should be able to venture across Arkesia without issue even with one of the less potent versions of those GPUs. Here are the PC specs you’ll need to run Lost Ark, as detailed by the developer:

It’s going to be an unusually busy month and, if you plan on weaving in some zombie killing in between leveling the MMORPG’s several classes, you may want to also check out the hardware you’ll need to run Dying Light 2.
