Can I Run DRAKE?
The Molasses Flood released DRAKE in 2020. It is an action adventure game, published by CD PROJEKT RED. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. With more than 1 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. There are 50 achievements to chase. At 6 years old it targets an older hardware baseline than most buyers now own. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. Steam lists support for 8 languages. Cloud saves are enabled.

Setting and environment
The game is set in an open sandbox. Play is structured around one continuous open world. 18 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion. The view is from a third person view. Continuous worlds put sustained pressure on memory and storage, and DRAKE can never assume the player will stop and let it load.
Why DRAKE is demanding
The graphics requirement for DRAKE is light. Hardware around Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti is enough, so DRAKE runs on machines never bought for gaming. At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding. The install is small at roughly 7 GB. A 64 bit version of Windows is required.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run DRAKE?
DRAKE is light on hardware. Its minimum, Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB / AMD Radeon R7 360 2GB, 8 GB RAM, about 7 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 | Comfortable | 5.31x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 2.99x |
| 4K | Runs well | 1.33x |
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.

Each card is compared against DRAKE'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.
