There's no Official minimum Specs
But this is what I previously ran it on before upgrading
64Bit Windows
Intel 7700K
8GB Ram
GTX 980
Non-NVME SSD
Can you list your PC specs
Windows ver. 32 or 64bit
CPU?
How much Ram?
What GPU you have?
HDD or SDD?

I run it on:
3rd Gen i5-3210M, 16GB RAM, GeForce GT 650M with 2GB of video RAM, 128GB SSD Laptop and it works just fine.
What you need is a computer that has a graphics card from Nvidia or AMD (Don't recommend AMD as they have very poor driver support) and not "Intel HD" whatever graphics only.
That's curious. All my years of owning various PCs and so far I never had major issues with AMD cards. And they DO release regular driver updates.
I have a laptop with a 4th Gen i7 and a AMD FirePro M6100 graphics card. The only driver that installs correctly is a version from mid 2018! and that driver crashes randomly. More recent drivers have a yellow mark in the device manager so the AMD card isn't in use when I use it to play games on. I have to disable the Intel HD graphics in the BIOS to get the AMD card working and the newest (early 2021) driver still crashes. It's good that you have a positive experience with AMD cards, but in my case I've summitted crash reports when the game crashes and they have still to make any improvements. Plus it's been nearly 4 years and the driver is still not installing correctly with the Intel's integrated graphics enabled, so that tells me that they don't test the drivers and that they don't give a damn about their products after it's been sold.
This is my experience with AMD and unless the really step up their support, I can't recommend them to people.
That is not good, sorry. 
Is it possible that you have a dodgy graphics card? Have you tried complaining to the shop you got it from, or they just washing their hands from responsibility?
I had an older AMD once that the at the time current driver didn't like, so in the end, once that old card fizzled out, I bought a similar speced newer AMD card which I'm using now. Could be that your card is too much behing the times now, like my older one was? Ps.: I've no idea about laptop graphic cards as the only one I have is a super old Hitachi that is mosly just a paperweight, I just don't see the point of laptops for gaming.

The original AMD M6100 graphics card that came with the laptop was dodgy, the screen would blank out and reload when I tried to play a game with it. So I bought this replacement. It works for about 3-4 hours before the game would crash out. Normal browsing and video watching with the card is not a problem and works flawlessly, so I have ruled out hardware being the problem.That is not good, sorry.

I use a laptop to play games on because it's more convenient for me as I'm not tied to the desk so I can take my gaming anywhere. I'm a light gamer so this works for me.
It's a old card but it works just fine for the game. The Last Hope is playable even with the remade flight deck.

I will be soon to acquire a more powerful cpu than I currently have, its characteristics are
AMD Athlon ddr4 ryzen series
AMD ddr4 am4 motherboard
RAM memory ddr4 8GB 3200mhz
AMD Athlon ddr4 series ryzen 3000g processor
320gb hard drive
Integrated Radeon Vega graphics
Would this be enough to play it?

From my understanding, Vega is an entry level integrated apu
It might be pushing it, but you might be able to run it on the lowest/normal graphics settings
especially if your hdd is mechanical and not an ssd

hey ive downloaded the game but its in rar like a word pad format or something? like no game came with it. what did i do?
A .rar file is a compressed file. The game's inside it.
You need winrar or z7ip to uncompress it.
I have no problem with lowering the resolution, if it is a mechanical disk, but I plan to add an ssd
If it was me, I would not bother with a new CPU as that would not make a big difference with running the game on, I would buy a cheap GTX680,GTX780,GTX880,GTX980,GTX1080.
The GTX6xx series is old but it will be cheap and is capable of running the game with high (not ultra) graphics. Check the price of each series (the higher the series the better it is) and pick the one that is in your price range.
If you run your operating system on one HDD and install the game on a second HDD then a mechanical HDD will work fine as the operating system will not be using the second HDD for it's activities. But make sure it's a 7200rpm drive and not the 5400rpm one.
I would not play this game on the lowest setting using the integrated graphics of the CPU, it is just a horrible experience. You can download and try out the game on your current hardware and see if the low graphics is playable for you, as upgrading your CPU will make very little difference.
I said in my earlier reply that I don't recommend AMD graphics cards, but that is your choice not mine. You have the information so you need to make up your own mind on what brand you want to go with.
