Setting and environment
Beyond Horizon places its action in an open sandbox, and the player works through one continuous open world. That openness is what costs performance. Beyond Horizon has no loading walls to hide behind, so terrain and detail keep flowing in as the player moves. There are 5 official screenshots to judge the look from. The view is from a third person view.
Why Beyond Horizon is demanding
Beyond Horizon sits in the middle of the demand range, targeting Nvidia GeForece RTX 2070, a tier a mainstream card from the last few generations reaches without difficulty. Windows 11 appears in the requirements, which is worth checking before buying Beyond Horizon. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Beyond Horizon at the floor and Beyond Horizon at the recommended tier are not the same experience. The install is small at roughly 15 GB. Beyond Horizon expects 16 GB of system memory.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Beyond Horizon?
Beyond Horizon scales across a wide range of hardware. Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB is enough to get in at minimum settings, while Nvidia GeForece RTX 2070 and 8 GB of RAM is what it recommends for a smoother experience. Where you land mostly comes down to the settings you're willing to trade.
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.
