Hell Let Loose: Vietnam’s official PC requirements target 1080p at 60 fps on the minimum specification and 1440p at 60 fps on the recommended specification. Both targets are marked “subject to change” on Steam, so treat them as the current pre-release baseline—not a performance guarantee for every map or 100-player battle.
This page uses the requirements published on the official Steam store. We do not ask you to download a hardware-scanning executable.

The short answer
Your PC meets the current minimum specification if it has:
- a 64-bit Windows 10 installation;
- an i5-11600K, Ryzen 5 5600X or a comparable processor;
- an RTX 2060, RX 5700 or a comparable graphics card;
- at least 50 GB of free storage;
- a broadband connection.
Meeting that list means your hardware is in the range the developer currently associates with a 1080p/60 target. It does not prove that the game will hold 60 fps in every scene. Server load, map conditions, background software, drivers, memory configuration and the final launch build can all affect the result.
What the recommended specification means
The recommended tier raises both the CPU and GPU target and lists Windows 11. Its stated goal is 1440p at 60 fps.
That makes the recommended specification the more useful baseline if you want to play at 1440p without immediately reducing image quality. It is not an “ultra settings” promise. Steam does not currently attach a quality preset to the target.
We will not assign exact performance to unlisted GPUs or CPUs before we have reproducible launch-build tests. A third-party comparison can tell you that two components occupy a similar product tier, but only a controlled game test can show how HLLV behaves in a full match.
Is 50 GB enough?
Steam currently lists 50 GB of available space for both tiers. Keep additional free space for installation overhead, shader caches, recordings and future updates.
The official requirements do not currently say that an SSD is mandatory. An SSD is still the sensible installation location for a modern large-map game, but that is editorial setup advice—not an official requirement. We will update this section if Team17 or Expression Games publishes a storage-specific recommendation.
Does the game need a fast internet connection?
The official requirement says “broadband internet connection” without publishing a minimum download speed or latency target.
For a 50v50 tactical game, connection quality matters in ways a headline download speed cannot fully describe. Packet loss, unstable Wi-Fi and long distance to the server may hurt the experience even when a speed test looks fast. Before changing graphics settings, check whether the problem appears to be:
- low or unstable frame rate;
- delayed input or visual stutter;
- high ping;
- packet loss;
- server-side hitching affecting multiple players.
Those are different problems and need different tests.
How to check your PC without installing a “checker”
1. Find your CPU and memory
Open Windows Settings, go to System → About, and record the processor and installed RAM.
Steam’s current requirement table does not list a RAM amount. We will not invent one. Check the store page again near launch in case the table changes.
2. Find your GPU
Open Task Manager, choose Performance, then select GPU. Record the full model name and dedicated GPU memory.
3. Check Windows and free storage
Confirm that Windows is 64-bit. In Settings → System → Storage, verify that the intended drive has at least 50 GB free, plus practical headroom for installation and updates.
4. Compare exact model names
Compare your components with the official minimum and recommended entries. Be careful with laptop GPUs: a mobile GPU and a desktop GPU with a similar name may perform differently.
5. Use the launch build as the final test
If your PC sits close to the minimum tier, wait for launch-day testing and the storefront refund rules that apply in your region before making a decision based on an unofficial FPS estimate.
What if your PC is below the minimum?
Lowering resolution and graphics settings can reduce GPU load, but it cannot reliably compensate for every CPU, memory or engine bottleneck. Do not buy an upgrade based on one beta report or one anonymous hardware list.
Use this order:
- verify the official requirements have not changed;
- identify whether your CPU or GPU falls below the listed tier;
- wait for launch-build benchmarks using comparable hardware;
- compare performance across a full multiplayer match, not only a quiet tutorial;
- upgrade only when the limiting component is supported by repeatable evidence.
What if your PC meets recommended but performance is poor?
First separate hardware eligibility from a settings or launch issue. A PC can meet the recommended specification and still encounter a driver problem, shader compilation, an unstable setting, a server issue or a game bug.
Our best PC settings guide will use a step-by-step testing method rather than a universal “copy these settings” list. Also check the servers, crossplay and voice chat guide before treating connection symptoms as low FPS. New players can continue with the first-match beginner guide or return to the Hell Let Loose: Vietnam guide hub.
