Can my PC run ArcheAge Chronicles?
To run ArcheAge Chronicles you need at least Windows 10 64-bit, an Intel Core i5-12400 or AMD Ryzen 5 5600, 16 GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, with 100 GB of free storage. XLGAMES recommends Windows 11, a Core i7-12700 or Ryzen 7 5700X, 32 GB of RAM and an RTX 4060 Ti. These are the figures on the official Steam page. They are high for an MMO: 16 GB is the floor, and the minimum GPU is a mid-range card from 2020. The game is Windows-only on PC — no Mac or Linux build is listed. The demo uses the same requirements unless XLGAMES posts separate ones.

What the specs mean
- Storage: plan for 100 GB. An SSD isn't listed as required, but large open-world games stream textures constantly, so an SSD will load faster.
- Memory: 16 GB is the minimum, so close browsers and overlays before you play on a 16 GB machine.
- Graphics: AMD cards aren't listed. Pick an AMD card with similar performance to the NVIDIA models above.
- Steam Deck / Mac / Linux: no official support listed. Steam shows Windows only.
Consoles
PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions are announced, so console players don't need to worry about specs. The demo is Steam-only.
