Why Bleak Faith: Forsaken is demanding
Bleak Faith: Forsaken sits in the middle of the demand range, targeting GeForce GTX 1070 / AMD RX VEGA 56, a tier a mainstream card from the last few generations reaches without difficulty. Bleak Faith: Forsaken calls for DirectX 12, which rules out otherwise capable hardware that never got the feature level. Bleak Faith: Forsaken expects 16 GB of system memory. Bleak Faith: Forsaken takes about 20 GB of disk space. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Bleak Faith: Forsaken scales hard with the hardware you give it.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Bleak Faith: Forsaken?
Bleak Faith: Forsaken is light on hardware. Its minimum, GeForce GTX 750 Ti / AMD R7 265 or equivalent, 8 GB RAM, about 20 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 | Runs well | 1.36x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.77x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.34x |
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.
