Requirements can change

Source status: Confirmed.

Steam platform, anti-cheat and language notes

  • The September 14 Steam listing identifies Elytra as kernel-level anti-cheat. Older Easy Anti-Cheat references on this site have been superseded.

  • Windows 10 and Windows 11 are the only operating systems named in the published requirement tables.

  • Broadband internet is required for the online PvP game.

  • Steam currently lists 14 interface languages; English is the only language marked for full audio.

Performance context from official Q&A

In the official Q&A video, BULKHEAD says performance has been part of development from early on and describes testing against a practical baseline PC rather than assuming only high-end hardware. That does not replace the Steam specification table, but it explains why performance and input responsiveness matter to the developer.

Because WARDOGS is a large multiplayer Unreal Engine 5 game with many players concentrated around a combat zone, keep this page focused on the current Steam targets and update it when the store listing changes.
