Update: As you may have noticed, these requirements are the same as Call of Duty: Ghosts‘. It turns out that these are merely placeholder specs that aren’t indicative of the actual release.
The following statement was made by Activision:
The PC Specs for Advanced Warfare are not final. The info posted yesterday on the Activision store was from last year and posted in error. We apologize for any confusion. We look forward to releasing the actual PC specs once the game is optimized.
Stay tuned for the correct system requirements.
Original Story: Call of Duty is charting new territory this year with Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Instead of committing to a setting during World War 2 or the modern era like most games in the franchise have been, it’s set in 2054 where the world’s weapons are extremely advanced. It’s only proper to make the game look next-gen to match the content.
Activision has released the official PC system minimum and recommended requirements for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, and they appear to be right at where they should be. If you simply want to run the game, a PC from even a couple years ago should do the trick. However, if you want to run it on High, you’re going to need some modern components. For anyone like myself that’s hoping the PC version not only has impressive visuals, but has been given adequate development time, we might be in luck.
