Why Strange Brigade is demanding

Strange Brigade is undemanding on the graphics side. Its AMD Radeon RX570 or Nvidia GPU GeForce GTX 1070 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Strange Brigade. Strange Brigade needs only 8 GB of RAM. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. Strange Brigade needs only 2 GB of video memory. The install is small at roughly 35 GB.

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

Can you run Strange Brigade?

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

Strange Brigade targets a mainstream modern PC: AMD Radeon HD 7870 (2GB) or NVIDIA GeForce 750 Ti (2GB) and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to AMD Radeon RX570 or Nvidia GPU GeForce GTX 1070 for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable2.07x
1440pRuns well1.17x
4KBelow the bar0.52x

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.
