The beta for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is about to start. Accordingly, the system requirements have also been published – and they should please players without a high-end PC.
Why can players without the latest hardware be happy? In a blog post, the developers of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 shared the system requirements for the beta. It quickly becomes clear that neither the minimum requirements nor the recommended components expect the latest hardware.
Especially regarding graphics card and CPU, players who do not necessarily count themselves among the owners of a high-end PC can breathe a sigh of relief. This is particularly surprising compared to the relatively high demands of Battlefield 6.
What you can expect if you want to participate in the closed beta from October 2 to October 5, 2025, or the open beta from October 5 to October 10, 2025, you can find out here.
