Can I Run The Quarry?

Supermassive Games released The Quarry in 2022. It is an adventure game, published by 2K Games. The game supports a single player campaign and cooperative play. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. Two players can share one screen on a single machine, which is rare enough now to be worth noting. Steam gates it behind an age check at 17. Completionists have 40 achievements to work through. Over 15 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. 20 languages are covered by the store listing.

Why The Quarry is demanding

Demand in The Quarry is ordinary. The publisher has Nvidia RTX 2060 / Radeon RX 5700 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. The install is small at roughly 50 GB. The Quarry needs 64 bit Windows. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means The Quarry scales hard with the hardware you give it. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has.

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

Can you run The Quarry?

98%
Can run iton a typical modern PC (Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM), the processor is the tightest fit.

The Quarry leans on the processor more than the graphics card, its minimum CPU, a AMD FX-8350 \ Intel i5-3570, is what most builds trip over. A strong multi-core CPU paired with a mid-range card is the right shape here, the minimum GPU is a Nvidia GTX 780 / Radeon RX 470, not a top-end GPU.

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pRuns well1.21x
1440pBelow the bar0.68x
4KBelow the bar0.3x

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.
