Can I Run Tormented Souls?
Dual Effect released Tormented Souls in 2025. It is an action adventure game, published by PQube. It offers a single player campaign. It is localised into 12 languages according to the store listing. Over 1 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. There are 33 achievements to chase. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. This is current generation software, and the requirements read that way. Critics scored it 78 on Metacritic.

Setting and environment
The game is set in a horror setting. Play is structured around spaces built for exploration. Play is presented from a third person view. That openness is what costs performance. Tormented Souls has no loading walls to hide behind, so terrain and detail keep flowing in as the player moves. There are 10 official screenshots to judge the look from.
Why Tormented Souls is demanding
Tormented Souls asks a lot of the graphics card. It targets NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080, which our tables put above the RTX 3060, so Tormented Souls tends to define the machine you build rather than fit around one you own. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Tormented Souls scales hard with the hardware you give it. The 10 GB VRAM figure quietly excludes a lot of 6 GB hardware that would otherwise cope. System memory expectations are modest at 12 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Tormented Souls?
Tormented Souls is one of the more demanding games on PC. To reach its recommended tier you'll want a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080, 10 GB or AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, 16 GB-class graphics card, with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960, 4 GB or AMD Radeon R9 380, 2 GB the floor just to launch at minimum settings. Plan for a recent high-end GPU rather than a mainstream one.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Below the bar | 0.64x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.36x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.16x |
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.
Common GPUs

| GTX 1060 6 GB | Below minimum |
| GTX 1060 Laptop | Below minimum |
| GTX 1650 4 GB | Below minimum |

Each card is compared against Tormented Souls's published GPU requirement, assuming an otherwise-capable PC. Laptop rows use the real mobile chip's benchmark, a mobile GPU is always slower than its desktop namesake.
