Compare the two published hardware tiers
| Component | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Processor | Intel i3 or equivalent | Intel i5 or equivalent |
| Memory | 3 GB RAM | 4 GB RAM |
| NVIDIA graphics | GeForce 770 | GeForce 970 |
| AMD graphics | Radeon R9 290 | Radeon R9 390 |
| Available storage | 2 GB | 2 GB |
| Windows architecture | 64-bit CPU and OS | 64-bit CPU and OS |
These are the minimum and recommended specifications returned by the official Steam listing and its app-details API. The two access paths agree on the hardware information, but they represent the same underlying publisher dataset rather than two independent benchmark tests. Use the comparison to identify what is listed, not as a guarantee that a particular frame rate or graphics preset has been tested for your own machine.
Check every relevant component rather than treating one matching part as proof that the entire system meets a tier. Processor, memory, graphics and available storage answer different compatibility questions, so a comparison should keep their roles distinct. The research does not supply a substitute requirement for an unspecified component or a measured result for a configuration that falls between the two listed tiers.
Read the processor wording carefully
The collected specification names Intel i3 and Intel i5 families, with equivalents, but does not identify a verified generation or an exact model for those entries. Keep that broad wording intact when comparing your processor instead of rewriting it as a particular clock speed or a modern chip chosen by the wiki. A family label is the information the source provides, not a complete benchmark description of every processor bearing a related name.
This limitation is especially relevant when two computers have similar family names but different hardware details. Read the actual specifications of the system you intend to use, then compare them with the official information rather than assuming a marketing label settles the performance question. The page can report the published tier accurately without inventing an exact processor matchup or claiming that every possible equivalent has been tested.
Keep RAM and graphics as separate checks
The minimum memory entry is 3 GB RAM and the recommended entry is 4 GB RAM. The listed graphics alternatives are also tier-specific, with GeForce 770 or Radeon R9 290 at minimum and GeForce 970 or Radeon R9 390 at recommended. Read those fields together as the published comparison rather than selecting one familiar value and assuming it describes every other part of the system.
The research does not establish a graphics-memory requirement separate from the named cards, nor does it provide benchmark results for integrated graphics or another unlisted GPU. Do not convert the card names into a promise about a particular resolution or frame rate without testing that claim. The useful action is to compare your actual graphics hardware with the official entries and keep any performance conclusion distinct from the specification itself.
Interpret the storage figure correctly
Both tiers list 2 GB of available storage. That is the published storage allowance, not a verified measurement of the network download, an exact installed size after every update or a statement that every future version will always use the same amount. Keep the number attached to its stated purpose rather than copying it into another field that the source did not measure.
Use the current Steam installation information when a practical download or disk-space decision depends on the build available at that moment. The download guide points to the official demo entry and distinguishes it from the main game. That separation helps avoid treating a requirement on the main-game listing as a measured download size for a different product entry or a different version of the demo.
Resolve the Windows game and client caveat
The game's requirements text still says Windows 7 and higher, but the same Steam page notes that the Steam client supports Windows 10 and later from January 1, 2024. These statements concern different software, so the older game wording should not be presented as a recommendation to install the current Steam client on Windows 7. Report both pieces of information rather than silently replacing one with an unsupported compatibility claim.
For a practical system check, consider the game requirements and the distribution client's support separately. A 64-bit operating system answers the architecture requirement, while the client's supported Windows versions answer a different part of the installation path. The source discrepancy is a reason to read the full official listing carefully, not evidence that the wiki has tested a particular older Windows setup or found a workaround for it.
Separate Linux support from Mac support
The official listing exposes SteamOS plus Linux requirements, and the app data identifies Linux support. That is not the same platform flag as native macOS support, which the checked store information does not list and the app API marks false. Do not infer that a Mac can run the native game merely because another desktop operating system appears beside Windows on the store page.
The Mac guide explains that native-support distinction without promising performance through compatibility tools. This page also does not establish a specific Linux distribution, kernel requirement or Steam Deck performance result beyond the information actually supplied by the store. A platform label is useful evidence about the published build targets, but it should remain separate from an unverified claim about every device or software combination that might use that platform.
Use the demo without treating it as a benchmark database
The official free demo provides a way to try the game, but the research does not contain a controlled set of hardware performance measurements from it. If you use that playable introduction to assess your own setup, keep the version and your own observations attached to the result. Do not turn a personal experience in one build into a published guarantee about the final paid version or every system matching a listed tier.
The demo guide distinguishes the current October build from the older Next Fest demo. That version context matters when reading player comments about performance or interface behavior, because a report from one testing period does not automatically describe another. The review research follows the same distinction between an available playable introduction and a hands-on verdict that would require testing the later paid build.
Make a complete pre-installation comparison
Review the supported platform, processor wording, memory, graphics, storage and Windows client caveat together before drawing a conclusion. These fields provide a more complete picture than a single low-looking number taken out of the published requirements table. Keep the official listing available when installing, because this article reports the supplied research snapshot rather than replacing current product information with an undated hardware promise.
For the official entry points, use the Steam guide and follow the main-game or demo link that matches your task. For console availability, consult the separate PS5 and Xbox status pages instead of treating PC requirements as confirmation of a console port. The verified specifications answer what the store lists for PC, while actual performance and future platform announcements remain separate questions requiring their own evidence.
