Its Metacritic score stands at 83. Its 5 years mean the stated figures describe machines that were current then, not now. Cloud saves are enabled.

Why Resident Evil Village is demanding

The ask Resident Evil Village makes is moderate. AMD Radeon RX 5700 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 lands near our RTX 3060 reference, so a typical gaming PC is the right yardstick. Its stated video memory figure is modest at 4 GB, so on Resident Evil Village the speed of the graphics chip binds before its memory does. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Resident Evil Village scales hard with the hardware you give it. Windows 11 appears in the requirements, which is worth checking before buying Resident Evil Village. Resident Evil Village calls for DirectX 12, which rules out otherwise capable hardware that never got the feature level.

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

Can you run Resident Evil Village?

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

Resident Evil Village is light on hardware. Its minimum, AMD Radeon RX 560 with 4GB VRAM / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with 4GB VRAM, 8 GB RAM, 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

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pRuns well1.31x
1440pBelow the bar0.74x
4KBelow the bar0.33x

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.
