Can I Run The Blackout Club?

The Blackout Club is an action indie game from Question, released in 2019. Question both developed and published it. The game supports a single player campaign and cooperative play. Cloud saves are enabled. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. With more than 2 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. There are 14 achievements to chase. It is localised into 5 languages according to the store listing. Being 7 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. Steam gates it behind an age check at 18.

Setting and environment

The Blackout Club places its action in a horror setting, and the player works through spaces built to be avoided rather than cleared. The publisher supplies 5 storefront screenshots of these environments. The view is from a first person view.

Why The Blackout Club is demanding

The graphics requirement for The Blackout Club is light. Hardware around GeForce GTX 970 or GeForce GTX 1060 | Radeon R9 290X or Radeon RX 480 is enough, so The Blackout Club runs on machines never bought for gaming. The Blackout Club expects 16 GB of system memory. The install is small at roughly 15 GB.

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

Can you run The Blackout Club?

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

The Blackout Club targets a mainstream modern PC: GeForce GTX 670 | Radeon HD 7950 and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to GeForce GTX 970 or GeForce GTX 1060 | Radeon R9 290X or Radeon RX 480 for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable1.98x
1440pBorderline1.11x
4KBelow the bar0.49x

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.
