Age of Empires II: DE – The Last Chieftains System Requirements

While the game can run on PCs meeting the minimum requirements (Intel Core i5-4460/AMD Ryzen 3 2200G, GTX 650/HD 5850, 8GB RAM), you may experience lower frame rates and need to lower graphics settings for optimal performance. A PC above the minimum is recommended for a smoother experience, especially in larger games.

The minimum GPU requirement is an Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 or an AMD Radeon HD 5850. For a smoother experience, especially at higher resolutions and settings, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 or an AMD Radeon RX 570 is recommended.

A minimum of 8 GB of RAM is required to run Age of Empires II: DE – The Last Chieftains. However, 16 GB of RAM is recommended for a more stable experience, especially with larger maps and higher unit counts.

While technically possible, running Age of Empires II: DE – The Last Chieftains on integrated graphics is not recommended. You may experience significant performance issues, even at the lowest settings. A dedicated graphics card is highly recommended for a playable experience.

The best graphics settings depend on your hardware. If you meet the recommended specs, you can likely run the game on high or ultra settings. If you meet the minimum specs, start with medium or low settings and adjust upwards until you find a balance between visual quality and performance. Experiment with turning off anti-aliasing and lowering shadow quality for a performance boost.
