Setting and environment

That openness is what costs performance. theHunter: Call of the Wild has no loading walls to hide behind, so terrain and detail keep flowing in as the player moves.

Why theHunter: Call of the Wild is demanding

The graphics requirement for theHunter: Call of the Wild is light. Hardware around NVidia GTX 760 / R9 270x is enough, so theHunter: Call of the Wild runs on machines never bought for gaming. theHunter: Call of the Wild needs only 8 GB of RAM. theHunter: Call of the Wild takes about 60 GB of disk space. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. At 4 GB, VRAM is a non issue for theHunter: Call of the Wild.

Can you run theHunter: Call of the Wild?

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

theHunter: Call of the Wild targets a mainstream modern PC: NVIDIA GTX 660 / ATI HD7870 - 1GB VRAM and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to NVidia GTX 760 / R9 270x - 4GB VRAM for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable3.95x
1440pComfortable2.22x
4KBorderline0.99x

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.
