Can I Run Star Wars: Republic Commando?
Star Wars: Republic Commando is an action game from LucasArts, released in 2009. LucasArts both developed and published it. It offers a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. With more than 14 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. It is old enough that no current GPU generation existed when it shipped, so modern hardware tends to be far past what it can use. Critics scored it 78 on Metacritic. Split screen on one PC is supported, a feature most releases have quietly dropped. Cloud saves are enabled.
