Can You Run Destiny 2? The Destiny 2 Beta Specs Should Tell You Yes Or No

The Destiny 2 Beta specs have been released, showing if you can play the game on your PC or not when the Beta rolls around later this year.

Bungie has released the Destiny 2 Beta specs for PC platforms, meaning that if you’re skeptical about whether or not you’ll be able to run the game on your current PC, you’ll be able to look at the beta requirements and find out. The beta requirements are the actual game’s specs.

Previously, information about the Destiny 2 PC requirements has been revealed and agreed upon by most to be fairly reasonable; after all, you want to be able to run the game well enough that you won’t suffer from really bad framerates or awful visuals.

The Destiny 2 beta specs are as follows:

Minimum
CPU: Intel Core i5-2500 / AMD FX-6200
RAM: 6 GB
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 / AMD Radeon R7 270

Recommended
CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 / AMD FX-9590
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 / AMD Radeon R9 390

Thankfully, if you don’t have the PC muscle to play Destiny 2 then you can just get it on the original consoles, the Xbox One and the Playstation 4. And, even if you prefer to play the game on the PC, at least you already have the Destiny 2 Beta specs to know if your machine can play the game.

While getting an upgrade or a new PC might be too pricey for most, it’s better than you not having any idea of what you would need and going in with a bad PC from the get-go. Considering how most PC games end up having better graphics and framerate than console games, many players might want to go for the PC version.

With the PC version of the game expected to sell over three million copies in just three months, many more players might be migrating to the PC or will be picking the game up for that platform, and now they’ll have the PC specs to use as a benchmark.
