Can I Run Solstice Chronicles?
Ironward released Solstice Chronicles in 2017. It is an action game, self published by the studio. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. There are 21 achievements to chase. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. It carries 244 Steam reviews, a small sample, so first hand performance reports are thin. Metacritic places it at 68. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. It keeps shared screen play alive, so a second player needs only a second controller. Its 9 years mean the stated figures describe machines that were current then, not now.

Why Solstice Chronicles is demanding
Very little is asked of the GPU by Solstice Chronicles. GeForce GTX 960 scores low against the RTX 3060, putting Solstice Chronicles within reach of laptop and integrated graphics. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Solstice Chronicles scales hard with the hardware you give it. Solstice Chronicles needs only 3.91 GB of RAM. Solstice Chronicles takes about 15 GB of disk space.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Solstice Chronicles?
Solstice Chronicles is light on hardware. Its minimum, GeForce GTX 750 Ti, 3.91 GB RAM, about 15 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 | Comfortable | 2.83x |
| 1440p | Runs well | 1.59x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.71x |
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.
