Can I Run Minecraft Dungeons?

Minecraft Dungeons is an action adventure game from Mojang Studios, released in 2021. Xbox Game Studios published it. The game supports a single player campaign and cooperative play. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. With more than 16 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Steam lists support for 15 languages. Two players can share one screen on a single machine, which is rare enough now to be worth noting. There are 104 achievements to chase. Being 5 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe.
