This wikiHow will show you easy ways to download and install PC games directly from the game’s website, from a video game distributor platform, and through the Microsoft Store. We'll also show you how to check your specs to make sure your computer has enough memory and CPU power to play your favorite games.

Users can download games from the Microsoft Store which is already built into most Windows devices and offers a good selection of free and paid games. Users can also build a library of games using a host platform like Steam or Epic Games. Many websites offer the option to download games without needing to download a hosting client first.
