Can I Run Forgotten?
Forgotten is an action adventure game from Polyarc, released in 2026. Polyarc both developed and published it. The game supports a single player campaign. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. It is localised into 10 languages according to the store listing. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. Its 114 Steam reviews make it a niche release rather than a widely tested one. It is a recent release, so its requirements reflect current hardware rather than a previous generation. There are 46 achievements to chase.

Setting and environment
The game is set in a gentle, brightly drawn world. Play is structured around spaces built for exploration. The publisher supplies 9 storefront screenshots of these environments. The view is in three dimensions. Open environments are the harder case for a PC, and Forgotten has to keep far more of its world resident and streaming than a level based game needs.
Why Forgotten is demanding
Demand in Forgotten is ordinary. The publisher has Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. The install is small at roughly 15 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Forgotten?
Forgotten targets a mainstream modern PC: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 8GB / AMD RX Vega 56 8GB or better and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Runs well | 1.36x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.77x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.34x |
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 Forgotten'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.
