Official system requirements

What Never Was isn't on Steam, so we don't have official Steam-published specs to display. Our 2026 hardware recommendations above are based on real-world performance testing and similar-title comparison.

Can your PC run What Never Was?

Check the manufacturer's launcher (Battle.net, Riot Client, Epic, etc.) for specific requirements — most live-service titles run well on a modern entry-level gaming PC.
