The launch of the long-awaited Hogwarts Legacy is approaching and if you haven’t ordered you yet, you may be wondering if your PC will be able to run the game.
Steam had already revealed the necessary and recommended settings before, but they were changed at the beginning of the year.
- Minimum requirements
- Recommended requirements
- Requirements for Ultra Performance
- Requirements to play in 4K

Hogwarts Legacy: Weight, Size and Pre-Download
It has been confirmed that on PC (Steam or Epic Game Store) no pre-download will be available.
On the other hand, if you order the game in the Deluxe or Collector version, you will have 72 hours of early access, and you can play it from Feuary 7, 2023, instead of Feuary 10th.
Computer weight: 85 GB
The new generation consoles will have pre-download.
It is now possible to download in advance from Xbox Series X/S, while this feature will be available on Feuary 5 for PS5 owners.
Hogwarts Legacy: What are the system requirements to play it?
Although minimum requirements are already running the game, the ideal is to try to play at least in the recommended requirements for a better experience.
Similarly, the game will obviously be very beautiful and fluid on the PS5 consoles and the Xbox Series.
Note that the game settings will allow you to reduce the quality of the game to make it more fluid.
It will be at 1080p/60fps and can be placed on an HDD hard disk even if it is recommended to put it on an SSD.
