Can I Run Gear?
Gear is an action game from KONAMI, released in 2023. KONAMI both developed and published it. The game supports a single player campaign. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. 6 languages are covered by the store listing. Completionists have 12 achievements to work through. With only 679 reviews on Steam, there is little community data on how it behaves across hardware.

Setting and environment
Gear places its action in a military setting, and the player works through spaces built for exploration. Play is presented in two dimensions. 6 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion. Open environments are the harder case for a PC, and Gear has to keep far more of its world resident and streaming than a level based game needs.
Why Gear is demanding
Demand in Gear is ordinary. The publisher has NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. Gear needs 64 bit Windows. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Gear scales hard with the hardware you give it. Disk footprint is light, near 1 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Gear?
Gear is light on hardware. Its minimum, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 / Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000, 8 GB RAM, about 1 GB free, sits below what an entry-level PC ships with today, so nearly any modern machine, and many older ones, will run it.
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 Gear'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.
