Alright, here we go. So, um, Delta Squad is, like, making a comeback or something. Gears of War: Reloaded and all that jazz. Xbox Game Studios and The Coalition decided it’s time to bring the original game back, but updated for modern tech. Why? Honestly, who knows. But hey, it’s on Steam now, so that’s a thing.
Now, let me tell you, Gears of War on these high-end machines? You’ll need beefier gear. Yeah, I’m talking about those processors and graphics gadgets that make everything look real shiny. Remember when your computer used to sound like an old lawn mower? Hopefully, that’s not the case anymore.
Here’s the rundown — wait, have you upgraded lately? I mean, if your PC is from like five years ago, you might still be good. If not, time to dig into your pockets, maybe? The specs list looks scarier than it is.
Minimum Specs (You need these, like, yesterday)
- OS: Windows 10-19H2. Yeah, no ancient stuff.
- Processor: Apparently, AMD Ryzen 3 or Intel i5 Skylake? I pretend to know what that means.
- Memory: 8 GB RAM. Easy? Maybe.
- Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 480/Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650, or whatever’s lying around, probably works.
- DirectX: Version 12. Sure, why not.
- Space: 70 GB. Seriously, start deleting those old games.
Not too scary, right? Let’s just hope you aren’t clinging to that 2009 hardware like a security blanket.
Recommended (If you wanna flex a little)
- OS: Windows 10 – 22H2 or Windows 11 – 24H2. Fancy, huh?
- Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 or Intel i5 Coffee Lake. Remember when coffee was just a drink?
- Memory: Still 8 GB RAM. No complaints.
- Graphics: Ah, the good stuff, like the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 or RTX 2070. Whatever’s not making your wallet weep.
- DirectX: Yeah, still Version 12.
- Space: Miraculously, still 70 GB. Bless.
Okay, back to some reality. Maybe you forgot what your rig’s packing? Check it out: open the taskbar, type dxdiag, and boom—info overload. Easy peasy.
Thinking of an upgrade or your machine cried uncle already? There’s always some guide online about cramming more tech into your box. Just don’t burn the house down, okay?
Now, here’s the twist—does this high-tech relic even run on those funky handhelds? You know, where you play Gears while squished in a subway train. Oh wait, they call it "Steam Deck" or something. Apparently, it works. Even runs on ASUS ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go. Go figure.
Speaking of summer, during some game fest 2025 (or was it later?), I got to try it on Xbox Ally X. Yes, it played beautifully—90 FPS and high settings, go big or go home, right?
Circle the date, August 26, 2025. It’s dropping on Xbox Series X|S, some Xbox Cloud thingy, Windows PC, Steam, and even the beloved PS5. Guess Xbox likes sharing now? Game Pass folks, guess what? It’s there on day one. Buy it digitally? Play it everywhere. I know, crazy.
