Find out if your PC can handle certain settings in Black Ops 6.
While some PC players might have already seen how their system handles Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, others are likely in need of the official requirements for the game. These requirements let players know what hardware they need to run Black Ops 6 at certain resolutions and settings.
There are three PC requirement lists for Black Ops 6: minimum, recommended, and ultra. The minimum specifications are the barebones requirements you need to get the game running while the ultra specifications offer top-of-the-line performance. To see how your PC stacks up, you can check out each requirement list below.
PC requirements for Black Ops 6
We will put the specifications for the three requirement lists below so you can see the different types of hardware you need. For the most part, though, every subsequent requirement list makes a one to two generational leap in terms of PC hardware. For example, if you currently meet the minimum requirements, you need to go up one or two generations for your CPU and GPU to meet the recommended requirements.
Here are all three PC requirement lists for Black Ops 6:
Minimum requirements
- OS: Windows 10 64 Bit (latest update)
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1400 or Intel Core i5-6600

- Video Memory: 2 GB
- Storage Space: SSD required with 102 GB available space at launch

Playing with the minimum requirements will likely be able to reach 1080p, and 30-60 fps at low-medium settings.
