Can I Run Construction Simulator?
weltenbauer. Software Entwicklung GmbH released Construction Simulator in 2022. It is a casual simulation game, published by astragon Entertainment. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. It carries 33 achievements. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. The game ships for Windows alone. Over 10 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. It is localised into 16 languages according to the store listing.

Setting and environment
Construction Simulator structures its play around one continuous open world. The publisher supplies 9 storefront screenshots of these environments. The view is from a first person view. Continuous worlds put sustained pressure on memory and storage, and Construction Simulator can never assume the player will stop and let it load.
Why Construction Simulator is demanding
The ask Construction Simulator makes is moderate. Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 ( lands near our RTX 3060 reference, so a typical gaming PC is the right yardstick. Construction Simulator takes about 10 GB of disk space, SSD specified. 16 GB of system memory is expected, the current mainstream figure. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Construction Simulator 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 Construction Simulator?
Construction Simulator is light on hardware. Its minimum, Nvidia GTX 960 (4GB) or AMD Radeon Pro 570 (4GB) or comparable, 8 GB RAM, about 10 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 | 1.42x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.8x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.35x |
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 Construction Simulator'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.
