Can I Run Blackhaven?

Released in 2021, Blackhaven is an indie game built by Historiated. The game supports a single player campaign. It is free to play at the base tier. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. Its 5 years mean the stated figures describe machines that were current then, not now. Completionists have 18 achievements to work through.

Setting and environment

Blackhaven places its action in a historical setting, and the player works through spaces built for exploration. There are 12 official screenshots to judge the look from. Play is presented from a first person view. That openness is what costs performance. Blackhaven has no loading walls to hide behind, so terrain and detail keep flowing in as the player moves.

Why Blackhaven is demanding

Demand in Blackhaven is ordinary. The publisher has AMD RX Vega 56, Nvidia GTX 1070/GTX1660Ti in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding. Disk footprint is light, near 4 GB. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Blackhaven at the floor and Blackhaven 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 Blackhaven?

100%
Can run iton a typical modern PC (Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM), the graphics card is the tightest fit.

Blackhaven is light on hardware. Its minimum, GeForce GTX 750/AMD Radeon 7790 or later, 4 GB RAM, about 4 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

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pRuns well1.36x
1440pBelow the bar0.77x
4KBelow the bar0.34x

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 Blackhaven'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.
