FC 25 PC requirements: Minimum and recommended specs confirmed

As someone who has spent countless hours huddled around a pixelated pitch, I can confidently say that the release of FC 25 feels like Christmas morning all over again! However, it’s not just about unwrapping the game and diving straight into the action. Oh no, not with PC gaming!


Here comes the much-anticipated football match, FC 25! However, playing on a PC isn’t always just a matter of setting it up and going; there are some additional steps involved.

Consequently, here’s a guide detailing both the lowest required and suggested hardware specifications for running the game smoothly.

In this case, since it’s an Electronic Arts (EA) game, we’ve clarified the compatible platforms for running the game, because it’s important to note that when it comes to PC games, there can sometimes be variations in where they can be bought and played.

Let’s get to it!

Which PC platforms can play FC 25? 

You can buy FC 25 for your PC and play it using the EA App, but you can also access it through Steam and the Epic Games Store.

On your PC, you’ll find the identical version of the game that’s also available on consoles, except for one key difference: The PC version doesn’t link to the same Ultimate Team market as Xbox and PlayStation. However, it does allow crossplay functionality with the latest console systems.

To play the game on Steam and Epic Games Store, players will still need to log in via EA

Minimum PC requirements for FC 25

  • Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
  • OS: Windows 10 – 64-Bit (Latest Update)
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 or Intel Core i5 6600k
  • Memory: 8GB RAM
  • Graphics: AMD RX 570 or Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 100GB available space
  • Sound Card: DirectX: 12 Compatible video card or equivalent (feature level 12_0)

The minimal specifications for this game are quite lenient, surprisingly so, but given its type, it’s clear that you might prefer greater processing power to highlight the gameplay effectively.

It’s also crucial for the gameplay to be buttery smooth in sports games, which is why we’ve listed the recommended specs below. 

Recommended PC specs for FC 25 

  • Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
  • OS: Windows 10 – 64-Bit (Latest Update).
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 2700X or Intel Core i7 6700
  • Memory: 12GB RAM
  • Graphics: AMD RX 5600 XT or Nvidia GTX 1660
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 100GB available space
  • Sound Card: DirectX: 12 Compatible video card or equivalent (feature level 12_0)

It’s quite unexpected that the gap between the suggested specifications and the minimum requirements isn’t significant, with the suggested specs being essentially the same as those from last year.

In simpler terms, these portable gaming devices such as the ASUS ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go have the capability to smoothly operate a wide range of games.

Sadly, since Electronic Arts’ anti-cheat software isn’t compatible with Linux operating systems, the game isn’t playable on a Steam Deck.
