The upcoming super-hero game by Square Enix, Guardians of the Galaxy, is a week away. The game will launch on all major platforms, including Nintendo Switch, on October 26. Being a console player has some advantages. While they just have to install and play the game, PC players first need to check if they can run the game or not.

The developer has revealed the official PC system requirements of the game. Surprisingly, they aren’t out of the world, except maybe one thing. GOTG requires 150 GB of free storage space. Meaning, you probably have to make some space for this behemoth.

That’s a lot of space for a single-player-only game. Yes, GOTG doesn’t offer multiplayer gaming. To compare, Red Dead Redemption 2, which is around 120 GB, offers multiplayer. Still, 150 GB is nothing compared to the amount of HDD space Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Warzone requires.

Minimum System Requirements
  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit Build 1803
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1400/Intel Core i5-4460
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060/AMD Radeon RX 570
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Storage: 150 GB available space
Recommended System Requirements
  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit Build 1803
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1600/Intel Core i7-4790
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super/AMD Radeon RX 590
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Storage: 150 GB available space

The requirements are mentioned on the official Steam page as well. You can purchase the title for PC from there or via Epic Games Store.

Even if your PC doesn’t meet the system requirements, you can stream the game directly to your PC via GeForce Now. All you need is a good internet connection and an active subscription to the streaming service.
