Shrek 2 Remastered system requirements
Two PC lists, and they do not match
Aspyr’s support article and the Steam store agree: Windows 11 64-bit, an i5-10400 or Ryzen 5 3600, 8 GB of RAM, a GTX 1060 or RX 570, DirectX 12, and 15 GB of disk. Recommended RAM is 16 GB, with a GTX 1070 or RX 5700.
Epic’s page, checked the same day, asks for much more: Windows 10 or 11, a Ryzen 5 5600 or i5-12400F, 16 GB, an RX 7600 or RTX 4060, 12 GB of disk, and a controller. Its recommended row goes to 32 GB and an RX 9070 or RTX 5070. I am not averaging a 1060 with a 4060.

Mac, Windows, and a 1080
No Mac row appears on the Steam page or the Aspyr article I used. I am not implying Boot Camp or a compatibility layer. A GTX 1080 is above the Steam minimum of a 1060 and below Epic’s listed minimum of a 4060, so the answer depends on which list you trust. Deck notes are on performance.
Before launch, TheGamer reported a Steam page that briefly showed 16 GB and an RTX 4060-class minimum, then that block disappeared. Today’s Steam page matches Aspyr’s lower list. I am recording the scare as a 21 October story, not as the current minimum.
Questions
Can I play Shrek 2 Remastered with a GTX 1080?
Steam’s minimum is a GTX 1060, so a 1080 clears that list. Epic’s minimum is an RTX 4060 or RX 7600. Pick the store whose list you are buying from.
Is there a Mac version?
Not on the Steam requirements or the Aspyr article checked 13 Nov 2026.
Why were the requirements so high?
A pre-release Steam listing, reported by TheGamer on 21 Oct 2026, showed a 4060-class minimum. The current Steam page does not.
