Can you run METAL SLUG?

100%
Can run iton a typical modern PC (Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM), the processor is the tightest fit.

METAL SLUG is light on hardware. Its minimum, Intel HD Graphics, 1 GB RAM, about 0.49 GB free, sits below what an entry-level PC ships with today, so nearly any modern machine, and many older ones, will run it.

1440pComfortable27.32x
4KComfortable12.14x

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.
