Windows System Requirements
- How can I check whether my PC meets the requirements?
- Start by checking that your PC has a 64-bit processor and operating system, then compare its configuration with the Windows requirements below. Steam lists minimum and recommended configurations, but these do not guarantee a particular frame rate. Check each component rather than using the memory requirement alone to judge your system.
| Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|
| Operating system: Windows 10 | Operating system: Windows 11 |
| Processor: Intel Core i5-6400 or AMD Ryzen 3 1200 | Processor: Intel Core i3-10100F or AMD Ryzen 3 3100 |
| Memory: 6 GB RAM | Memory: 12 GB RAM |
| Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 2GB or AMD Radeon RX 560 2GB | Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 or AMD Radeon RX 6800XT |
| DirectX: Version 11 | DirectX: Version 12 |
| Storage: 25 GB available space | Storage: 25 GB available space |
- Compare your processor and graphics card model names with the relevant row, alongside your operating system and memory.
- Make sure 25 GB of storage is available for either listed configuration.
- Check DirectX 11 support for the minimum configuration, or DirectX 12 for the recommended configuration.
- Use these requirements for the Windows PC version; consult your chosen console listing for its platform-specific access conditions.
Movement Input and Support
- Why can't I move with WASD at the start even though jumping and crouching work?
- Check the input deadzone under the game's controls settings. A player who experienced this in both the demo and full game reported that adjusting the deadzone restored movement. Try that setting before assuming your keyboard or installation is broken.
