Can I Run Quarantine Zone?
Released in 2026, Quarantine Zone is an indie simulation game built by Brigada Games. Publishing duties went to Devolver Digital. It offers a single player campaign. It is a recent release, so its requirements reflect current hardware rather than a previous generation. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. 14 languages are covered by the store listing. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. Cloud saves are enabled. Completionists have 25 achievements to work through. With more than 11 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented.

Setting and environment
Quarantine Zone places its action in an outbreak scenario, and the player works through systems the player balances from above. Simulation heavy building games lean harder on the processor as the map fills, so late game performance rarely matches the opening hours. There are 15 official screenshots to judge the look from. Play is presented from a first person view.
Why Quarantine Zone is demanding
The ask Quarantine Zone makes is moderate. GeForce RTX 2080 / Radeon RX 5700 lands near our RTX 3060 reference, so a typical gaming PC is the right yardstick. Quarantine Zone names Windows 11, so a Windows 10 machine may need attention first. DirectX 12 is named, so Quarantine Zone expects a graphics driver and card from the modern era rather than merely a fast one. The install is small at roughly 12 GB. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Quarantine Zone at the floor and Quarantine Zone at the recommended tier are not the same experience.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Quarantine Zone?
Quarantine Zone is light on hardware. Its minimum, GeForce GeForce GTX 980 / Radeon RX 470 / Arc A380, 8 GB RAM, about 12 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 | Borderline | 1.1x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.62x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.27x |
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 Quarantine Zone'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.
