Setting and environment
The game is set in a wartime setting. Play is structured around combat arenas. Play is presented in three dimensions. The publisher supplies 14 storefront screenshots of these environments.
Why World of Warships is demanding
World of Warships barely touches the GPU. Its stated 1920×1080; Intel UHD 630 AMD Radeon™ R7 240 Nvidia®Geforce® GTX 770 AMD Radeon RX 570 target is below anything currently sold. World of Warships needs only 8 GB of RAM. Disk footprint is light, near 67 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run World of Warships?
Older hardware holds up here: World of Warships runs on modest graphics, with 1280x720; Nvidia®Geforce® GT 640 Intel UHD 630 AMD Radeon™ R7 240 enough to meet the minimum. Add 6 GB of RAM and a mid-range CPU and a PC several years old will play it fine.
Bottleneck: GPU
Large install. World of Warships needs about 67 GB of free storage.
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 14.17x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 7.97x |
| 4K | Comfortable | 3.54x |
A projection, not a measurement. We scale the published GPU requirement by pixel count, since 1440p draws 1.78 times the pixels of 1080p and 4K draws 4 times as many, then compare against RTX 3060 / Ryzen 5 build. The publisher did not state a target resolution, so 1080p is assumed as the baseline. We hold no frame rate data, so no FPS figure is claimed. Headroom above 1 means the reference machine has room to spare at that resolution.
