Can I Run Bean Battles?
Bean Battles is an action indie game from Gupa Games, released in 2018. Gupa Games both developed and published it. It offers competitive multiplayer. It is not Windows only, with macOS and Linux covered too. Because it hooks into the Steam Workshop, what a player installs on top can matter more for performance than the official figures. Its Steam review count passes 6 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. At 8 years old it targets an older hardware baseline than most buyers now own. It is localised into 12 languages according to the store listing. It carries 25 achievements.

Setting and environment
The game is set in a horror setting. Play is structured around a shrinking play area. The publisher supplies 15 storefront screenshots of these environments.
Why Bean Battles is demanding
The graphics requirement for Bean Battles is light. Hardware around NVIDIA GeForce GTX960 VRAM is enough, so Bean Battles runs on machines never bought for gaming. Bean Battles takes about 2 GB of disk space. At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Bean Battles scales hard with the hardware you give it. Bean Battles needs only 0.5 GB of video memory.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Bean Battles?
Bean Battles is light on hardware. Its minimum, 512 MB VRAM Intel HD 4000 / GeForce 200 Series / Radeon HD 4000 Series, 2 GB RAM, about 2 GB free, sits below what an entry-level PC ships with today, so nearly any modern machine, and many older ones, will run it.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 3.04x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 1.71x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.76x |
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.
