Why Bendy and the Dark Revival is demanding
Demand in Bendy and the Dark Revival is ordinary. The publisher has 8GB VRAM GeForce RTX 2080, AMD Radeon VII in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. Bendy and the Dark Revival needs 64 bit Windows. Bendy and the Dark Revival expects 16 GB of system memory. It wants 8 GB of video memory, which rules out the 6 GB cards that are otherwise quick enough. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Bendy and the Dark Revival scales hard with the hardware you give it. Bendy and the Dark Revival calls for DirectX 12, which rules out otherwise capable hardware that never got the feature level. The install is small at roughly 15 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Bendy and the Dark Revival?
Bendy and the Dark Revival is light on hardware. Its minimum, 2GB VRAM GeForce GTX 1030, AMD RX 550, 8 GB RAM, about 15 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 | Borderline | 1.03x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.58x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.26x |
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.
