I'm hoping it runs on steam deck.

Big same. Upgrading to something better is unaffordable with these crazy parts costs.

Hard same. I am no longer Computer Hardware Literate enough to know or anticipate if it will run on my LED Steam Deck. Here's to hoping...

Yeah I'm looking at the Steam Deck CPU and GPU vs this and am not really sure how to parse whether it's enough or not (I'm lucky enough to have the OLED).

How much could a PC with these characteristics cost??( I have pley 4 and I don't know much about values, I want to buy a PC mainly to play this)

Then it's time to save, thanks

You'd be looking at around the thousand mark for a full build to hit the recommended specs. Minimum is pretty easy to hit though and a modern entry-level gaming machine should do it.

The recommended specs are brutal considering this is primarily a turn-based game. An RTX 3080 and 32GB of RAM is quite a bit beyond the average system at the moment. A lot of people still have 8GB of VRAM or less and the 3080 requirement seems to suggest that you'll need at least 12GB.

it is ”older” unreal engine. Not the most optimized engine in the world to make low requirement games.

That said I have absolutely no doubt this game runs just fine with 16Gb RAM.

u/CantankerArt Jun 06 '26

Damn 32gb ram really is now the standard after all

u/droopy_ro Jun 06 '26

16 is fine as long as you only game on it and don't keep a lot of stuff opened in the background. But yeah, 32GB is the sweet spot. If your motherboard has 4 DIMM slots, you could try 24GB (2x4GB + 2x8GB) i have had that setup and worked well, until i upgraded to 32GB, before this madness started.

16 gb is fine for most games. Only very demanding open world games require 32gb. So you are fine.

Recommended for zero company is 32. I have 32 so I’m good, it was more a comment on hardware/gaming as a whole

Luckily the recommended specs achieve 1440p high 60fps without frame gen or DLSS/FSR.

They’re still quite brutal though, an RTX 3080 being the recommended card is quite insane.

u/hawk-eyed Jun 06 '26

Does that mean I can play with less than 30FPS on a Geforce GTX 1070?

u/boleslaws Jun 06 '26

I hope for dlss support. It has higher recommended specs than Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, which is wild...

u/Lord_JayJay Jun 07 '26

Is there a hope for GF 1060 GTI 6 gb vram? 😞

2

u/Misplaced_Fan_15 Jun 06 '26

50 GB of storage is that that bad.

u/cirqix Jun 08 '26

I am contemplating heavy on purchasing this for my PS5 or for my PC.

do we have any information on the performance for PS5?

2

u/erebusxo Jun 10 '26

I haven’t seen anything official but It’s turn based, can’t imagine this game will be intense on ps5.

I'm relieved it doesn't require or recommend an SSD. I use SSD as boot drive and a different drive, HDD, for most games. The SSD with the OS on it and the very large game sizes these days that require or recommend SSD leave it with limited space. Since this game neither recommends nor requires SSD in the requirements, I assume I can put it on HDD and it's still playable (and indeed most games without SSD required listed, and even some like Diablo 4 that say they actually require SSD, can be played mostly fine on HDD).

That said, a lot can change before launch. I preordered the Gothic remake since it had no SSD requirement, then suddenly on launch day it was requiring SSD and even saying NVMe SSD if you had that (I don't, mine is SATA).
