Can I Run City of Gangsters?

City of Gangsters is a simulation strategy game from SomaSim, released in 2021. Kasedo Games published it. It offers a single player campaign. Being 5 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. With more than 1 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. Steam lists support for 6 languages. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. It carries 80 achievements.

Setting and environment

Players spend their time in a historical setting, moving through systems the player balances from above. There are 11 official screenshots to judge the look from. The load here grows with the save. An empty map tells you very little about how the machine will cope once the build is large. It is played from a top down view.

Why City of Gangsters is demanding

City of Gangsters is undemanding on the graphics side. Its NVidia GeForce 10 series or newer, AMD RX series or newer target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear City of Gangsters. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means City of Gangsters scales hard with the hardware you give it. City of Gangsters needs only 8 GB of RAM. City of Gangsters takes about 1 GB of disk space.

This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.

Can you run City of Gangsters?

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

City of Gangsters is light on hardware. Its minimum, NVidia GeForce 700 series or newer, AMD Radeon R5/R7/R9 200 series or newer, Intel Iris / HD 5000 or newer, 8 GB RAM, about 1 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
1080pComfortable5.31x
1440pComfortable2.99x
4KRuns well1.33x

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.
