Can I Run Wolcen?

Wolcen is an action adventure game from WOLCEN Studio, released in 2020. WOLCEN Studio both developed and published it. It offers a single player campaign. Its 6 years mean the stated figures describe machines that were current then, not now. It carries 64 achievements. Controller support is partial, so some input still falls back to the keyboard. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. It is localised into 11 languages according to the store listing. Its Metacritic score stands at 60. Over 61 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported.

Why Wolcen is demanding

The graphics requirement for Wolcen is light. Hardware around NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 / AMD Radeon RX 570 is enough, so Wolcen runs on machines never bought for gaming. Disk footprint is light, near 18 GB. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. Wolcen needs 64 bit Windows.

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

Can you run Wolcen?

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

Wolcen targets a mainstream modern PC: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti / AMD Radeon HD 6850 and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 / AMD Radeon RX 570 for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable2.07x
1440pRuns well1.17x
4KBelow the bar0.52x

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.
