Can I Run Evil West?
Evil West is an action adventure game from Flying Wild Hog, released in 2022. Focus Entertainment published it. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Steam gates it behind an age check at 17. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. It carries 30 achievements. The game ships for Windows alone. 12 languages are covered by the store listing. Its Steam review count passes 9 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress.

Why Evil West is demanding
Demand in Evil West is ordinary. The publisher has GeForce GTX 1060 / Radeon RX 590 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Evil West at the floor and Evil West at the recommended tier are not the same experience. 16 GB of system memory is expected, the current mainstream figure. Evil West needs 64 bit Windows. Evil West names just 4 GB of video memory, so the bottleneck sits in raw GPU throughput rather than VRAM. Evil West takes about 40 GB of disk space.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Evil West?
Older hardware holds up here: Evil West runs on modest graphics, with 4 GB VRAM, GeForce GTX 750 Ti / Radeon RX 460 enough to meet the minimum. Add 8 GB of RAM and a mid-range CPU and a PC several years old will play it fine.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 1.73x |
| 1440p | Borderline | 0.98x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.43x |
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 Evil West'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.
