How to use these specifications
These are publisher-listed targets, not a benchmark database. Matching a listed part does not guarantee identical performance across drivers, background software, cooling, memory configuration, or future game versions.
Compare the full tier rather than one component. A stronger graphics card cannot compensate for every CPU, memory, or system issue, and the recommended line includes both a quality setting and resolution target.
Keep the date attached
System requirements can change during development and Early Access. Recheck the Steam store before installing or purchasing hardware. This page records the date of its last comparison so an older specification is never presented as timeless.

Not confirmed
- Performance for every equivalent laptop or mobile GPU
- Final requirements for the full release
- Guaranteed frame rates on an otherwise unmatched system
