Can I Run City Car Driving?
City Car Driving is an indie racing game from Forward Development, Ltd., released in 2026. Forward Global Group, Ltd. published it. The game supports a single player campaign. As a new title, the figures below were written against parts you can still buy. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. It carries 982 Steam reviews, a small sample, so first hand performance reports are thin. Steam Workshop support means community content is part of the picture, and a heavy mod load can push the real requirements past anything the publisher lists. The game ships for Windows alone. Only some of the game is mapped to a controller.

Why City Car Driving is demanding
City Car Driving asks a lot of the graphics card. It targets nVidia GeForce RTX 3070, which our tables put above the RTX 3060, so City Car Driving tends to define the machine you build rather than fit around one you own. City Car Driving asks for 8 GB of video memory, so VRAM capacity matters here as much as speed. City Car Driving takes about 15 GB of disk space. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so City Car Driving at the floor and City Car Driving at the recommended tier are not the same experience. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. DirectX 12 is named, so City Car Driving expects a graphics driver and card from the modern era rather than merely a fast one. 16 GB of system memory is expected, the current mainstream figure.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run City Car Driving?
City Car Driving is one of the more demanding games on PC. To reach its recommended tier you'll want a nVidia GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB VRAM / AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT 16 GB VRAM-class graphics card, with nVidia GeForce GTX1660 6 GB VRAM / AMD RX 5700 8 GB VRAM the floor just to launch at minimum settings. Plan for a recent high-end GPU rather than a mainstream one.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Below the bar | 0.77x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.43x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.19x |
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 City Car Driving'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.
