Aggelos 2 System Requirements: PC Specs, PS5, Xbox & Switch Performance Guide
Aggelos 2 is a retro-inspired action-platformer from developer WONDERBOY BOBI and publishers PQube and PixelHeart, following the 2018 original with a larger world, a dual-form combat system, and a Metroidvania structure across two overlapping realms of light and dark. Performance-wise, this is an exceptionally lightweight title. The game runs on a modern engine with 2D pixel art, and the official minimum specification asks for a 200 MHz Pentium processor and just 256 MB of RAM, which is hardware from the late 1990s. The game launched on 27 August 2026 for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. The specifications below are taken directly from the official Steam store page and the PQube launch FAQ.
System Requirements
Minimum (Windows)
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 |
| Processor | 200 MHz Pentium processor or higher |
| Memory (RAM) | 256 MB |
| Graphics | Must support DirectX 11 or Vulkan |
| VRAM | Not listed separately by the developer |
| DirectX | Version 11 |
| Storage | 100 MB available space |
| Additional Notes | Controller recommended. No SSD requirement stated. |

What this means in practice: The minimum tier targets 1080p at 60 fps on the game’s default settings. The 200 MHz Pentium processor requirement is a figure from the late 1990s, and the 256 MB RAM floor is one of the lowest you will see in a 2026 release. This is not a hardware specification in any meaningful modern sense. The 100 MB install size is tiny, and the game will run on essentially any Windows 10 machine built in the last fifteen years. The developer has not listed a VRAM figure because the game’s pixel-art visuals do not require dedicated graphics memory. If you own a computer that can run Windows 10 and browse the web, it will run Aggelos 2.
Recommended (Windows)
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 11 |
| Processor | Intel i3 or Equivalent |
| Memory (RAM) | 4 GB |
| Graphics | Nvidia GeForce GT 1030 or AMD Radeon RX 550 or Intel UHD Graphics 770 |
| VRAM | Not listed separately; the GT 1030 ships with 2 GB, the RX 550 with 2 GB or 4 GB |
| DirectX | Version 11 |
| Storage | 100 MB available space |
| Additional Notes | Controller recommended. |

What this means in practice: The recommended tier targets 1080p at 60 fps on higher settings, and it is a modest step up from the minimum. The Intel i3 processor requirement covers budget chips from the last decade, and the 4 GB RAM recommendation is standard for any modern PC. The GT 1030 and RX 550 are both entry-level graphics cards from 2017, and the Intel UHD Graphics 770 is integrated graphics from 2021. The 100 MB install size is unchanged. If you have a laptop or desktop built in the last eight to ten years, you will meet this tier without issue. The difference between minimum and recommended is essentially about ensuring smooth performance rather than unlocking major visual upgrades, because a 2D pixel-art game does not have meaningful visual settings to scale.
A Note on VRAM and System RAM
Aggelos 2 is a 2D pixel-art action-platformer with static backgrounds and animated sprite work. The developer has not listed a VRAM requirement because the game does not need one. You will not be VRAM-limited at any resolution. The 256 MB RAM minimum is the more relevant figure, and it reflects the game’s memory footprint holding two overlapping world maps, enemy data, and the player’s form-switching state in memory. Do not upgrade your GPU or RAM for this game. If you have a computer built in the last decade, you are covered.
PlayStation 5 and PS4
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Firmware | Latest PS5 or PS4 system software |
| Storage | Not specified on the PlayStation Store listing; PC version requires 100 MB |
| Performance | No technical issues reported by reviewers; PS5 version described as running cleanly |
| Additional Notes | Offline play enabled, 1 player, Remote Play supported, PS5 and PS Portal cloud streaming with Premium subscription |
Source: PlayStation Store listing, GBAtemp’s PS5 review, and WKOHakuMedia’s review. Last verified: 19 September 2026.
What this means in practice: The PS5 and PS4 versions launched on 27 August 2026 alongside the PC and Xbox versions. GBAtemp’s PS5 review confirms that the game runs without technical issues, and WKOHakuMedia’s review noted that “as this uses a modern engine, there are no issues with flickering or slow down.” The game supports offline play, Remote Play, and PS5 cloud streaming with a Premium subscription. A physical edition is available for PS5. Given the game’s extremely low PC requirements and the hardware capabilities of both PlayStation consoles, you should expect a smooth 60 fps experience at 1080p or higher on PS5, and a comfortable 30 to 60 fps on PS4. If you own a PS5 or PS4, this version should perform without any concerns.
Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Firmware | Latest Xbox system software |
| Storage | Not specified on the Xbox Store listing; PC version requires 100 MB |
| Performance | Specific resolution and frame rate targets not published by WONDERBOY BOBI; no technical issues reported |
| Additional Notes | Optimised for Xbox Series XS; Xbox achievements; Xbox cloud saves |

What this means in practice: The Xbox versions launched on 27 August 2026 and are available on both Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. PQube’s launch announcement confirms the game is optimised for Xbox Series X|S. WONDERBOY BOBI has not published specific resolution or frame rate targets for either console, but given the game’s negligible hardware demands, you should expect smooth performance on every Xbox platform. The Xbox Series S version is likely to run at a lower resolution, though this remains unconfirmed. The game supports Xbox achievements and Xbox cloud saves, so progress carries across consoles if you play on multiple Xbox systems.
Nintendo Switch
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Firmware | Latest Nintendo Switch system software |
| Storage | Not specified on the Nintendo eShop listing; PC version requires 100 MB |
| Performance | Reviewers report no performance issues; game runs well on Switch |
| Additional Notes | TV, Tabletop, and Handheld modes supported; physical edition available for Nintendo Switch |
Source: PQube’s launch announcement, LadiesGamers’ Switch review, and Nintendo Life’s review. Last verified: 19 September 2026.
What this means in practice: The Nintendo Switch version launched on 27 August 2026 and is available both digitally and physically. LadiesGamers’ review of the Switch version did not report any performance issues, and the game’s 2D pixel-art visuals are well-suited to the Switch’s hardware. A physical edition is available for Nintendo Switch. Given the game’s extremely low system requirements, the Switch version should run at a smooth frame rate in both docked and handheld modes. If you own a Switch and enjoy retro action-platformers, this is a natural fit for the console’s portable form factor.
Steam Deck
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Compatibility | Verified (confirmed by PQube) |
| Performance | Runs well on Steam Deck per PQube’s official FAQ |
| Additional Notes | Some users have reported crash issues on Steam Deck in community forums; PQube has a bug reporting thread on Steam |
Source: PQube Launch FAQ, Indistation’s compatibility report, and tuxDB’s Steam Deck listing. Last verified: 19 September 2026.
What this means in practice: Aggelos 2 carries a Steam Deck Verified badge, Valve’s highest compatibility rating, and PQube’s official FAQ confirms that “Aggelos 2 plays well on Steam Deck.” Indistation’s coverage describes the game as having “extremadamente bajos” (extremely low) technical requirements and notes that the Verified certification makes it easy to play on Valve’s handheld. However, there are caveats. A community forum post on Something Awful reported that the game is “crash prone on Steam Deck,” and PQube has a dedicated post-launch bug reporting and feedback thread on Steam where players can report issues. The game’s 100 MB install size makes it an easy title to keep installed, and the Verified badge means it runs natively on SteamOS with full controller support. If you own a Steam Deck and want to play Aggelos 2, the game is officially supported, but check the Steam forums for current reports on stability before purchasing.
macOS and Linux: Not Available
Aggelos 2 is a Windows-only release on PC. The Steam page lists Windows as the only supported operating system. There is no macOS or native Linux version available. Steam Deck users play through Proton, and the Verified badge confirms that this compatibility layer works well.
Final Verdict: Can Your PC Run Aggelos 2?
Yes, almost certainly. Aggelos 2 is one of the least demanding games of 2026. The minimum spec asks for a 200 MHz Pentium processor and 256 MB of RAM, which is hardware from the late 1990s. The 100 MB install size is tiny, and there is no SSD requirement. If you own a computer built in the last fifteen years that runs Windows 10, you can run Aggelos 2 without difficulty.
The recommended tier asks for an Intel i3, 4 GB of RAM, and a GT 1030 or integrated Intel UHD 770 graphics, which is still hardware from roughly a decade ago. Any gaming PC or laptop from the last eight to ten years will meet this tier comfortably. The VRAM requirements are non-existent because the game is 2D. Do not upgrade your hardware for Aggelos 2.
On console, the game launched on 27 August 2026 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Reviewers have reported no performance issues on any platform. The PS5 version runs cleanly according to GBAtemp, and the Switch version performs well according to LadiesGamers. Physical editions are available for PS5 and Nintendo Switch. The game was also available with a 20 percent launch discount on Steam and PlayStation until 10 September 2026.
On Steam Deck, the game is Verified and PQube confirms it plays well, but some users have reported crash issues. The 100 MB install size makes it easy to keep installed. There is no macOS version and no native Linux version.
