Setting and environment
Players spend their time in a cyberpunk future, moving through spaces built to be avoided rather than cleared. 8 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion. Play is presented from a first person view.
Why Deus Ex: Breach™ is demanding
Very little is asked of the GPU by Deus Ex: Breach™. AMD Radeon RX 480 - 1920 x 1080 or NVIDIA GTX 970 - 1920 x 1080 scores low against the RTX 3060, putting Deus Ex: Breach™ within reach of laptop and integrated graphics. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. 16 GB of system memory is expected, the current mainstream figure. Disk footprint is light, near 12 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Deus Ex: Breach™?
Deus Ex: Breach™ targets a mainstream modern PC: AMD Radeon HD 7870 (2GB) or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 (2GB) and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to AMD Radeon RX 480 - 1920 x 1080 or NVIDIA GTX 970 - 1920 x 1080 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 | 1.98x |
| 1440p | Borderline | 1.11x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.49x |
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.
