Can I Run The Chant?
Released in 2022, The Chant is an action adventure game built by Brass Token. Publishing duties went to Prime Matter. It offers a single player campaign. Cloud saves are enabled. Steam lists support for 14 languages. With only 854 reviews on Steam, there is little community data on how it behaves across hardware. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. Steam gates it behind an age check at 17. The game ships for Windows alone. There are 42 achievements to chase.

Setting and environment
The game is set in an unsettling psychological setting. Play is structured around one continuous open world. The view is from a third person view. There are 7 official screenshots to judge the look from. Open environments are the harder case for a PC, and The Chant has to keep far more of its world resident and streaming than a level based game needs.
Why The Chant is demanding
The ask The Chant makes is moderate. GeForce RTX 2060 Super lands near our RTX 3060 reference, so a typical gaming PC is the right yardstick. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. DirectX 12 is named, so The Chant expects a graphics driver and card from the modern era rather than merely a fast one. The Chant needs 64 bit Windows. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means The Chant scales hard with the hardware you give it. The install is small at roughly 40 GB, on an SSD.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run The Chant?
Older hardware holds up here: The Chant runs on modest graphics, with GeForce GTX 1050 Ti / Radeon RX 580 enough to meet the minimum. Add 8 GB of RAM and a mid-range CPU and a PC several years old will play it fine.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Borderline | 1.1x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.62x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.27x |
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.
