Warhammer® 40,000®: Dawn of War II®, Chaos Rising and Retribution for Mac and Linux – system requirements revealed

These classic games arrive fresh as daisies, and undemanding daisies at that. Pretty much any Mac or Linux rig under 5 years old should be fine, but as ever Space Marines; make sure you read the small print.

Minimum requirements for Mac call for a 1.8 GHz processor with 4GB RAM and a graphics card with 512MB, but we recommend a 2.4 GHz processor and 8GB RAM with a 1GB graphics memory.

On Linux you'll need a 64-bit 2.0 GHz processor with 4GB RAM. The minimum graphics card requirement is a 1GB NVIDIA 6xx series, a 1GB AMD 6xxx series or an Intel Iris Pro series card, but to see these three games at their best you’ll need a 2GB NVIDIA 7xx series, a 2GB AMD R9 series, or better.

NVIDIA cards require driver version 367.35 (tested). AMD and Intel GPUs require MESA 11.2 (tested).

Dawn of War II, Chaos Rising and Retribution are all coming to Mac and Linux on September 29th. Rally to the minisite for the system requirements in full, along with a gallery of screenshots and videos.
