Can I Run Elliot?
Elliot is an action adventure game from Square Enix, released in 2026. Square Enix both developed and published it. It offers a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. 9 languages are covered by the store listing. With more than 1 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. It carries 44 achievements. Cloud saves are enabled. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. This is current generation software, and the requirements read that way.

Why Elliot is demanding
Demand in Elliot is ordinary. The publisher has AMD Radeon RX 5600XT / Intel Arc A580 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. Elliot expects 16 GB of system memory. Elliot calls for DirectX 12, which rules out otherwise capable hardware that never got the feature level. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Elliot at the floor and Elliot at the recommended tier are not the same experience. Elliot takes about 20 GB of disk space.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Elliot?
Elliot is memory-hungry: it wants 16 GB of system RAM, above the 8 GB many machines still ship with. Graphically it is undemanding, AMD Radeon™ RX 5500 XT / Intel® Arc™ A580 / NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 clears the minimum, so more RAM, not a new GPU, is the upgrade most players need.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Runs well | 1.28x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.72x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.32x |
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 Elliot'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.
