Can I Run Edge of Eternity?
Released in 2021, Edge of Eternity is an action adventure game built by Midgar Studio. Publishing duties went to Nacon. The game supports a single player campaign. The game ships for Windows alone. There are 58 achievements to chase. Workshop content is supported, so the published requirements describe the unmodded game only. Being 5 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. With more than 3 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. 8 languages are covered by the store listing. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress.

Setting and environment
Edge of Eternity places its action in a fantasy world, and the player works through one continuous open world. Continuous worlds put sustained pressure on memory and storage, and Edge of Eternity can never assume the player will stop and let it load. Play is presented from a third person view. 15 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion.
Why Edge of Eternity is demanding
Demand in Edge of Eternity is ordinary. The publisher has NVIDIA GTX 1070 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Edge of Eternity scales hard with the hardware you give it. Edge of Eternity needs 64 bit Windows. The install is small at roughly 20 GB. At 12 GB, system memory is undemanding.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Edge of Eternity?
Edge of Eternity leans on the processor more than the graphics card, its minimum CPU, a Intel i5 6500, is what most builds trip over. A strong multi-core CPU paired with a mid-range card is the right shape here, the minimum GPU is a NVIDIA GTX 970, not a top-end GPU.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Runs well | 1.31x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.74x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.33x |
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.
