Can I Run Ann?
Ann is a strategy game from World's Edge, released in 2021. Xbox Game Studios published it. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. The game ships for Windows alone. Over 71 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. At 5 years old it targets an older hardware baseline than most buyers now own. Steam lists support for 26 languages. Completionists have 175 achievements to work through. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. Metacritic places it at 81.

Setting and environment
Ann places its action in a wartime setting, and the player works through a base the player builds up. 10 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion. Play is presented in three dimensions. What taxes the PC is the number of things being simulated, which means the requirements describe the start of a game, not the end of one.
Why Ann is demanding
The graphics requirement for Ann is light. Hardware around Nvidia GeForce 970 GPU or AMD Radeon RX 570 GPU is enough, so Ann runs on machines never bought for gaming. Ann calls for DirectX 12, which rules out otherwise capable hardware that never got the feature level. 16 GB of system memory is expected, the current mainstream figure. Ann takes about 50 GB of disk space. Windows 11 appears in the requirements, which is worth checking before buying Ann.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Ann?
Ann targets a mainstream modern PC: Intel HD 520 or AMD Radeon RX Vega 11 and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to Nvidia GeForce 970 GPU or AMD Radeon RX 570 GPU with 4GB of VRAM 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 | 2.07x |
| 1440p | Runs well | 1.17x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.52x |
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 Ann'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.
