Destiny 2 PC requirements and graphics performance guide.
Destiny 2 launches on PCs worldwide today, nearly two months after Bungie’s blockbuster shooter launched on consoles—and the wait was worth it. Unlike the first Destiny, the sequel isn’t giving PC gamers the cold shoulder. Destiny 2 on PC is the definitive way to play the game, and one of the prettiest shooters to ever grace a display despite some surprisingly modest PC requirements.

It doesn’t matter what type of monitor you have, either, because Destiny 2 ($60 on Amazon or Blizzard) is no half-assed PC port. The game offers full support for 4K, 21:9 ultrawide, and even cutting-edge high-dynamic range (HDR) monitors, in addition to the usual options. Beyond that, while the console versions of the game are locked to a mere 30 frames per second, Destiny 2 on PC places no cap on your frame rate. Yes, you can finally play Destiny at 60fps (or more!) with a keyboard and mouse. It’s glorious.

Our first impressions of Destiny 2 on PC are high ones indeed, with the gameplay matching the graphical smoothness. We’re working on a proper review of Destiny 2 now. In the meantime, here’s a look at the technical options available to PC gamers, and the PC hardware requirements you’ll need to get the game running. But before we begin, here’s a look at Destiny 2 running at a smooth 4K/60 on PC, captured on a system running a Core i7-7700K and GeForce GTX 1080 Ti during E3.
