Can I Run Streets of Rage 4?

Released in 2020, Streets of Rage 4 is an action indie game built by Dotemu. The game supports a single player campaign and cooperative play. It keeps shared screen play alive, so a second player needs only a second controller. Its Steam review count passes 17 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Steam lists support for 12 languages. There are 45 achievements to chase. Its 6 years mean the stated figures describe machines that were current then, not now. Alongside Windows it also ships for macOS and Linux. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. Metacritic places it at 84. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand.

Why Streets of Rage 4 is demanding

Very little is asked of the GPU by Streets of Rage 4. NVIDIA GTX 960 / Radeon HD 5750 scores low against the RTX 3060, putting Streets of Rage 4 within reach of laptop and integrated graphics. Disk footprint is light, near 10 GB. At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding.

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

Can you run Streets of Rage 4?

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

Streets of Rage 4 targets a mainstream modern PC: NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 | AMD Radeon HD 6670 and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to NVIDIA GTX 960 / Radeon HD 5750 or better for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable2.83x
1440pRuns well1.59x
4KBelow the bar0.71x

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.
