Can I Run Rain World?

Videocult released Rain World in 2017. It is an action adventure game, published by Akupara Games. It offers a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. Completionists have 47 achievements to work through. Workshop content is supported, so the published requirements describe the unmodded game only. Steam lists support for 10 languages. Being 9 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. Over 44 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. Metacritic places it at 66. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. It keeps shared screen play alive, so a second player needs only a second controller.

Why Rain World is demanding

The graphics requirement for Rain World is light. Hardware around GeForce 7 Series / Radeon RX400 Series (or better) is enough, so Rain World runs on machines never bought for gaming. The install is small at roughly 4 GB. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding.

This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.

Can you run Rain World?

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

Rain World is light on hardware. Its minimum, Intel HD (Integrated), GeForce 6 Series / Radeon R7 Series, 4 GB RAM, about 4 GB free, sits below what an entry-level PC ships with today, so nearly any modern machine, and many older ones, will run it.

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable5.31x
1440pComfortable2.99x
4KRuns well1.33x

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.
