Can I Run Forever Skies?
Released in 2025, Forever Skies is an action adventure game built by Far From Home. The game supports a single player campaign and cooperative play. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. It carries 20 achievements. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. Its Steam review count passes 7 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. It is localised into 12 languages according to the store listing. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. It is a recent release, so its requirements reflect current hardware rather than a previous generation.

Setting and environment
Players spend their time in a world after its collapse, moving through spaces built for exploration. Open environments are the harder case for a PC, and Forever Skies has to keep far more of its world resident and streaming than a level based game needs. The view is from a first person view. 15 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion.
Why Forever Skies is demanding
Forever Skies sits in the middle of the demand range, targeting RX 5700-XT / GeForce RTX 2070 / Intel Arc A770, a tier a mainstream card from the last few generations reaches without difficulty. The 8 GB VRAM figure quietly excludes a lot of 6 GB hardware that would otherwise cope. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Forever Skies scales hard with the hardware you give it. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. Forever Skies takes about 31 GB of disk space. Forever Skies calls for DirectX 12, which rules out otherwise capable hardware that never got the feature level.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Forever Skies?
Older hardware holds up here: Forever Skies runs on modest graphics, with RX 580 8GB VRAM / GeForce GTX 1060 6GB VRAM / Intel Arc A750 enough to meet the minimum. Add 12 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 | Borderline | 1.1x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.62x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.27x |
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 Forever Skies'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.
