Can I Run Star Valor?

Star Valor is an action indie game from Rafael Burgos, released in 2022. Rafael Burgos both developed and published it. It offers a single player campaign. Its Steam review count passes 3 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. It is localised into 11 languages according to the store listing. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. It carries 45 achievements. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones.

Setting and environment

Players spend their time in space and the vessels that cross it, moving through an open sandbox. The view is from a top down view. Continuous worlds put sustained pressure on memory and storage, and Star Valor can never assume the player will stop and let it load. 15 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion.

Why Star Valor is demanding

Star Valor makes almost no demand of the graphics card. Nearly any machine built in the last decade clears the stated Any GPU target. It targets DirectX 9.0, an older feature level that almost anything still running will satisfy. Star Valor needs only 4 GB of RAM. Disk footprint is light, near 2 GB.

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

Can you run Star Valor?

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

Star Valor is light on hardware. Its minimum, Intel HD 4000, 2 GB RAM, about 1 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

1440pComfortable27.32x
4KComfortable12.14x

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.
