Can I Run Absolum?
Absolum is an action adventure game from Dotemu, released in 2025. Dotemu both developed and published it. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. Cloud saves are enabled. It carries 37 achievements. Two players can share one screen on a single machine, which is rare enough now to be worth noting. As a new title, the figures below were written against parts you can still buy. Its Steam review count passes 9 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Metacritic places it at 87. It is localised into 12 languages according to the store listing. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works.

Setting and environment
Players spend their time in a fantasy world, moving through runs that rebuild the layout each attempt. 12 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion. Generating a fresh layout every run is processor work, so a weak CPU shows up as a pause between areas. Play is presented from a side on view.
Why Absolum is demanding
The graphics requirement for Absolum is light. Hardware around NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 is enough, so Absolum runs on machines never bought for gaming. Windows 11 appears in the requirements, which is worth checking before buying Absolum. Absolum needs only 8 GB of RAM. Disk footprint is light, near 5 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Absolum?
Absolum targets a mainstream modern PC: NVIDIA GeForce GT 640, 4GB or AMD Radeon HD 5750, 1GB and 6 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 580, 8GB for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 1.89x |
| 1440p | Borderline | 1.06x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.47x |
A projection, not a measurement. We scale the published GPU requirement by pixel count, since 1440p draws 1.78 times the pixels of 1080p and 4K draws 4 times as many, then compare against RTX 3060 / Ryzen 5 build. The publisher did not state a target resolution, so 1080p is assumed as the baseline. We hold no frame rate data, so no FPS figure is claimed. Headroom above 1 means the reference machine has room to spare at that resolution.

Each card is compared against Absolum's published GPU requirement, assuming an otherwise-capable PC. Laptop rows use the real mobile chip's benchmark, a mobile GPU is always slower than its desktop namesake.
