Can I Run Gold Hunter?
eXtreme Studios released Gold Hunter in 2022. It is an indie simulation game, self published by the studio. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. With only 556 reviews on Steam, there is little community data on how it behaves across hardware. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. Steam lists support for 17 languages.

Setting and environment
The game is set in an open sandbox. Play is structured around one continuous open world. There are 46 official screenshots to judge the look from. That openness is what costs performance. Gold Hunter has no loading walls to hide behind, so terrain and detail keep flowing in as the player moves. The view is from a first person view.
Why Gold Hunter is demanding
Demand in Gold Hunter is ordinary. The publisher has NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. 16 GB of system memory is expected, the current mainstream figure. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Gold Hunter at the floor and Gold Hunter at the recommended tier are not the same experience. Gold Hunter takes about 11 GB of disk space.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Gold Hunter?
Older hardware holds up here: Gold Hunter runs on modest graphics, with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 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 | Runs well | 1.31x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.74x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.33x |
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 Gold Hunter'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.
