Why We Were Here Expeditions is demanding

Demand in We Were Here Expeditions is ordinary. The publisher has Nvidia GTX 1660TI in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. We Were Here Expeditions needs 64 bit Windows. Disk footprint is light, near 10 GB. System memory expectations are modest at 8 GB. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means We Were Here Expeditions scales hard with the hardware you give it.

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

Can you run We Were Here Expeditions?

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

We Were Here Expeditions targets a mainstream modern PC: Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB or equivalent, integrated graphics not supported and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to Nvidia GTX 1660TI or equivalent, integrated graphics not supported for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pRuns well1.28x
1440pBelow the bar0.72x
4KBelow the bar0.32x

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.
