Can I Run Bionite: Origins?
Released in 2021, Bionite: Origins is an action adventure game built by Platoon Studios. The game supports a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. The game ships for Windows alone. Being 5 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures.

Setting and environment
Bionite: Origins places its action in space and the vessels that cross it, and the player works through tight tactical maps. The publisher supplies 6 storefront screenshots of these environments. Play is presented from a first person view.
Why Bionite: Origins is demanding
Bionite: Origins is undemanding on the graphics side. Its Nvidia GeForce GTX1050 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Bionite: Origins. System memory is unusually high at 32 GB, so a 16 GB machine needs an upgrade even with a strong graphics card. DirectX 12 is named, so Bionite: Origins expects a graphics driver and card from the modern era rather than merely a fast one. Bionite: Origins takes about 24 GB of disk space. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Bionite: Origins at the floor and Bionite: Origins at the recommended tier are not the same experience.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Bionite: Origins?
Bionite: Origins is memory-hungry: it wants 16 GB of system RAM, above the 8 GB many machines still ship with. Graphically it is undemanding, NVidia GeForce GTX950 clears the minimum, so more RAM, not a new GPU, is the upgrade most players need.
Bottleneck: RAM
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 3.27x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 1.84x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.82x |
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.
