Can I Run Broken Roads?
Drop Bear Bytes released Broken Roads in 2024. It is a role playing game, published by Versus Evil. The game supports a single player campaign. Completionists have 31 achievements to work through. It is localised into 8 languages according to the store listing. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. With only 344 reviews on Steam, there is little community data on how it behaves across hardware.

Setting and environment
The game is set in a world after its collapse. Play is structured around spaces built for exploration. Open environments are the harder case for a PC, and Broken Roads has to keep far more of its world resident and streaming than a level based game needs. There are 12 official screenshots to judge the look from. It is played from an isometric view.
Why Broken Roads is demanding
Broken Roads is undemanding on the graphics side. Its NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 or AMD Radeon RX 570 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Broken Roads. Broken Roads takes about 10 GB of disk space. Broken Roads needs only 4 GB of RAM.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Broken Roads?
Older hardware holds up here: Broken Roads runs on modest graphics, with NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 970 or AMD Radeon RX 570 enough to meet the minimum. Add 4 GB of RAM and a mid-range CPU and a PC several years old will play it fine.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 2.07x |
| 1440p | Runs well | 1.17x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.52x |
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 Roads'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.
