Football Manager 26 Posts PC Specs on Steam, Lifting Recommended Bar to RTX 2060 and 12GB RAM

The Steam listing sets a higher "best experience" tier, reflecting a shift to Unity plus a larger 20GB install.

Overview

  • Sports Interactive’s Steam page now lists full PC requirements, with separate desktop and laptop entries for both minimum and recommended tiers.
  • Recommended hardware calls for an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060–class GPU, 12GB of system memory, and CPUs such as Intel Core i5-9600 or AMD Ryzen 5 2600.
  • Minimum specs remain modest with older chips like Intel Core i3-530 or AMD FX-4100 and GPUs including GeForce GTX 960, Radeon R9 380, or Intel HD 530, alongside 4GB RAM.
  • The listing cites a 20GB install and reports the game running on Unity, a technical shift that may help explain the larger storage footprint.
  • Outlets disagree on the minimum VRAM requirement—PCGamesN lists 2GB, whereas PC Gamer reports 512MB—with PC Gamer also noting SSE4.2/SSSE3 CPU support and modern shader-level needs.
