Backyard Baseball ’97 has been announced for Steam, and its system requirements are low enough that anyone can play it.

In case you missed it, Backyard Sports is making a comeback. And their first stop on the comeback tour is Backyard Baseball '97. Think of it as a remaster of sorts, as the game comes to Steam in October. If you're interested in playing Backyard Baseball '97, you'll need to know if your PC meets the system requirements.

Thankfully, the game takes just about nothing to run it. If you have a modern computer at all that can pull up Steam, you'll be able to play Backyard Baseball '97 with no problem. Let's take a look anyways, just to be sure.

As just about all games do on Steam, Backyard Baseball '97 has a section for its system requirements. If you scroll down the Steam page, you'll find the minimum requirements on one side and the recommended requirements on the other.

What's the difference? Well, it should be obvious by the names of each requirement. Minimum is what you'll need to run the game on its lowest settings. Recommended is what the developers think you'll need to experience the game how they've meant you to.

For a game made in 1997, it is getting slightly better graphics and performance due to its updated nature. Still, the requirements on both sides are laughably small.

Minimum

  • OS: Windows 10 32bit
  • Processor: 2.0+ Ghz
  • Memory: 512 MB RAM
  • Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 5670 1GB DDR3 Sapphire
  • Storage: 200 MB available space
  • OS: Windows 10 32bit
  • Processor: 2.0+ Ghz
  • Memory: 1 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA Quadro K2000M or better (2GB VRAM)
  • Storage: 200 MB available space

You won't need a rig that can run Crysis to play this one. The system requirements for Backyard Baseball '97 are miniscule for its lowest and highest needs. So, wishlist it and wait for October 10 to arrive if you want to slug with Pablo Sanchez like you did when you were a kid.
