The minimum specification calls for Intel Celeron G1820 | AMD A4-7300, 4 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 | Radeon R7 240. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Gwent: The Witcher Card Game launched on 23 October 2018, within three weeks of Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Return of the Obra Dinn and Assassin's Creed Odyssey. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 5 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Return of the Obra Dinn, Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
