How old of a PC will this run on? Windows XP?

I have an old PC that has an analog output to hook up to a CRT that would be great for this, but I'm not sure if it will run on Windows XP. Thoughts?

Nope , I believe Windows XP and Windows 7 in particular aren't compatible with DirectX 11 v10.0 which is required in order to run the game (because of the engine). 

Edit : That means it probably wont work :p

Actually Windows 7 do support DX 11, not 12 though, you can run UE4 games on Windows 7 so it is capable.
Windows XP definitely only supports DirectX 9, I have no idea why people still have this OS, it's a defective OS prone to errors and viruses than Windows 7.

I mean I've been in contact with a few friends of mine on the topic , one of them has Windows 7 atm and he said he already has DirectX 11 but the OS is uncapable of running it with v10.0 , our other friend diagnosed it as "old lol" , so basically Windows 7 is the main issue.


(Side note : his gpu is capable of running it but again OS limitations)

Tell him to switch to Linux for that build. No reason not to at this point.

maybe updates?

Like Jummy said, linux is a good way to go for old compatibilities for older games

Edit: not to mention the game prob run on dx11 around so definitively not Windows xp. A game being "PS1" graphic like doesn't mean it can run on older hardwares. Since the game is made under UE4, don't expect it to be fully functional everywhere x)

W7 is ok as long as the game run on dx11 or below. XP only support 9 and below afaik
