Can I Run Cube World?
Cube World is an adventure indie game from Picroma, released in 2019. Picroma both developed and published it. The game supports a single player campaign and cooperative play. Cloud saves are enabled. Controller support is partial, so some input still falls back to the keyboard. Its Steam review count passes 9 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. At 7 years old it targets an older hardware baseline than most buyers now own.

Setting and environment
Players spend their time in a fantasy world, moving through one continuous open world. That openness is what costs performance. Cube World has no loading walls to hide behind, so terrain and detail keep flowing in as the player moves. Play is presented from a third person view. There are 7 official screenshots to judge the look from.
Why Cube World is demanding
Cube World is undemanding on the graphics side. Its AMD Radeon R9 290, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Cube World. Cube World needs 64 bit Windows. The install is small at roughly 1 GB. Cube World 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 Cube World?
Cube World targets a mainstream modern PC: AMD Radeon R9 285, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 and 2 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to AMD Radeon R9 290, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 2.58x |
| 1440p | Runs well | 1.45x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.64x |
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.
Common GPUs

Each card is compared against Cube World'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.
