What are the official PC requirements?
| Component | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Operating system | Windows 10/11, 64-bit | Windows 10/11, 64-bit |
| Processor | Intel Core i3-9100 / AMD Ryzen 5 3500 | Intel Core i9-11900K / AMD Ryzen 9 5900X |
| Memory | 8 GB RAM | 16 GB RAM |
| Graphics | Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 / Radeon RX 470 | Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 / Radeon RX 6800 XT |
| DirectX | Version 12 | Version 12 |
| Storage | Not listed | Not listed |
These values come from the Steam store and the pinned developer FAQ. They do not include a target resolution, graphics preset or frame rate, so the recommended column should not be read as a guarantee of 60 FPS or 4K performance.
How do you check your Windows PC?
- Open Settings > System > About to see your Windows version, processor and installed RAM.
- Open Task Manager > Performance > GPU to identify the graphics processor.
- Press
Win + R, enterdxdiag, and check the System tab for the DirectX version. - Compare the exact model names with the table above.
Meeting the minimum list generally means the hardware is within the developer’s published support floor. Actual beta and Early Access performance can still vary with drivers, settings, background applications and game updates.
Are storage space and performance targets known?
No storage requirement is listed in the checked source. There is also no official FPS chart for the minimum or recommended hardware. Leave enough free space for the eventual download and updates, but avoid third-party pages that invent an exact install size before Steam publishes one.
What about controller, Mac and Linux support?
Steam currently labels the game with Partial Controller Support. The FAQ says it can be played with any controller supported by Steam. Those claims can coexist: a controller may work in gameplay while some launcher, text or menu interactions still need a keyboard and mouse.
The FAQ currently limits support to Windows 10 or 11. Native macOS and Linux versions are not confirmed. See platform availability rather than assuming compatibility layers are officially supported.
What should testers check next?
Read the playtest guide for access status and the multiplayer guide for the 1-4 player setup. Once the test opens, this page should be updated only with reproducible hardware observations that name the build, settings, resolution and measured performance.
