Minecraft Dungeons II PC Requirements

Looking to run Minecraft Dungeons II on PC? There is one important caveat up front: the spec numbers below are reported specifications, pieced together from press coverage of the launch build rather than a first-party requirements page from Mojang or Xbox. The game is modest in its demands — a machine that handled the first Minecraft Dungeons comfortably will handle the sequel — but until an official store table exists, treat every figure here as a guide rather than a guarantee. If the Steam page lists different specs, the store page wins.
The reported specification table
| Minimum | Recommended | |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | Intel Core i3-8100 or AMD Ryzen 3 2200G | Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 2600 |
| GPU | NVIDIA GTX 1050 or AMD Radeon RX 560 | NVIDIA GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 580 |
| RAM | 8 GB | 16 GB |
These are entry-level figures by 2026 standards: a GTX 1050-class card and an i3-8100-class CPU sit near the bottom of what's still sold in new desktops, which means most gaming PCs built in the last several years clear the bar easily. The recommended tier is only one step up — an i5-8400 / Ryzen 5 2600 with a GTX 1060 or RX 580 — so the gulf between "it runs" and "it runs well" is narrow. Check the full Minecraft Dungeons II Platforms page for where the Windows version is sold (Steam and the Microsoft Store).
What we could not verify
Several PC details remain unpublished or unlocated:
- Store requirements table — not found on a first-party page. If Steam or the Microsoft Store publishes its own table, that table takes priority over the reported numbers here.
- Storage size / download footprint — unpublished. Console listings leave the required space open too, so plan your drive space from what the storefront says at purchase time.
- Graphics extras — nothing official on ray tracing, resolution caps, or frame-rate targets for any platform.
- Operating system — no OS requirement has been published. Steam listings for Windows games of this era typically list Windows 10 or newer, but confirm on the store page.
Steam Deck
A natural question for a game this modest: will it run on Valve's handheld? It is a Windows game sold on Steam, and the reported minimum spec sits far below what the Steam Deck can do — so on raw hardware, the answer looks plausible. However, Valve has published no verified status for the game, and Mojang has claimed nothing about Deck compatibility either. Plausible but unverified: expect it to run, but don't count on official support.
Do you need to upgrade?
Honest answer for most readers: probably not. The heavier demands in Dungeons II are mechanical, not graphical — build systems, the 12-slot loadout, the interconnected world — rather than a huge leap in rendering. If your machine played the first Minecraft Dungeons smoothly, it should play the sequel smoothly. The 8 GB minimum is workable, but 16 GB is the more realistic figure if you keep a browser, voice chat, or other apps open while playing Minecraft Dungeons II Multiplayer Guide sessions with friends.
FAQ
Where do these specs come from? Press coverage of the launch build, not an official Mojang/Xbox page — that is why this page carries a "Partially confirmed" status.
Is there a Mac version? No Mac version has been announced, and no official support path exists for macOS. Pages claiming otherwise are not Mojang sources.
What about ray tracing or high-refresh options? Nothing official has been published for any platform — no ray tracing, resolution caps, or frame-rate targets.
Can I play on the Steam Deck? Likely yes on hardware grounds, but Valve has not verified it and Mojang has not claimed it. Unverified.
My PC runs the first Minecraft Dungeons fine — am I good? Yes. A machine comfortable with the original will comfortably run the sequel.
