- 2GB RAM
- Adreno 400 series GPU
- 1GB free storage space
Flagship phones with Snapdragon 865 can max out the graphics and resolution beautifully. But midrange chips can still run it fine if you lower settings a tad. Just be sure you got enough storage!

The file size is around 250MB – so pretty dang light! Use a download manager for fast and seamless downloading.
