Can I Run Broken?
Released in 2025, Broken is a strategy game built by Steel Balalaika. Publishing duties went to Slitherine Ltd.. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Workshop content is supported, so the published requirements describe the unmodded game only. 13 languages are covered by the store listing. Over 28 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. As a new title, the figures below were written against parts you can still buy. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. It carries 67 achievements. Cloud saves are enabled.

Setting and environment
Broken places its action in a wartime setting, and the player works through tight tactical maps. The view is in three dimensions. The publisher supplies 20 storefront screenshots of these environments.
Why Broken is demanding
Broken asks a lot of the graphics card. It targets GeForce RTX 3080 (, which our tables put above the RTX 3060, so Broken tends to define the machine you build rather than fit around one you own. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Broken scales hard with the hardware you give it. The install is small at roughly 85 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Broken?
Broken is one of the more demanding games on PC. To reach its recommended tier you'll want a GeForce RTX 3080 (10240 MB) / Radeon RX 6800 XT (16384 MB)-class graphics card, with GeForce GTX 1650 (4096 MB) / Radeon RX 570 (4096 MB) the floor just to launch at minimum settings. Plan for a recent high-end GPU rather than a mainstream one.
Bottleneck: GPU
Large install. Broken needs about 85 GB of HDD of free storage.
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Below the bar | 0.64x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.36x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.16x |
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 Broken'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.
