Manor Lords PC Specs & Requirements

March 08, 2024

Manor Lords is an upcoming medieval strategy and city-building game set to be released on 26th April 2024.

Developed by Slavic Magic and published by Hooded Horse, the game features “in-depth city building, large-scale tactical battles, and complex economic and social simulations”. 

In the game, players will be ruling the land as a medieval lord, building up their settlements, managing resources and production chains, and expanding their lands through conquest.

As with any modern game release, knowing the system requirements necessary to run the game at optimal settings is vital for having an enjoyable gameplay experience. In this article, we’ll explore the PC specs required to run Manor Lords, as well as provide recommendations for those looking to upgrade their current setup. 

So, read on to discover what hardware you will need to immerse yourself in this medieval world.

Manor Lords Minimum Requirements

To get Manor Lords up and running at 1080p resolution, with most settings likely on low but hitting a decent 30 FPS, Slavic Magic says you don't need a particularly powerful PC. 

These specs are pretty typical of a lot of modern releases that don’t require the most photo-realistic AAA graphics. Both the CPU and GPU options are truly showing their age now so most gaming PCs made within the last decade should be able to handle getting the game up and running.

Even though the game is really small in size compared to a lot of other modern titles, it’ll always benefit from being installed on a fast drive. This is especially true as your settlement grows and the game has to load more and more assets each time. With this in mind, consider upgrading your system with an SSD for faster load times, even if it's a smaller one.

If your PC just meets these specifications, however, you will need to be content with the lowest settings. You’ll only be able to play at around 1080p at 30 FPS with pretty much all the settings on low.

Manor Lords Recommended Requirements

According to Slavic Magic, systems that fall within these recommended specifications will likely provide a solid Manor Lords gameplay experience at 1080p, increasing framerates and graphical settings to ‘high’.

These recommended specs aren’t too much of a jump from the minimum requirements either. In fact, the GPU options are actually older than the parts suggested in the minimum requirements. But looking closely, their increase in VRAM is why they were chosen as the slightly better option whilst remaining at a similar price point.

However, they are a couple of generations old now and can be hard to get your hands on, so will likely not be the best option for value for money and you should instead look to newer parts.
