PC build check / launch answer

The Blood of Dawnwalker PC requirements

A store-spec reference for the PC questions players ask before launch: minimum hardware, recommended hardware, storage, and what the published requirements cannot prove about real-world performance.

Research state / launch-week updateOfficial specs / benchmark pending

Short answer

The official Steam listing requires Windows 10, DirectX 12, 16 GB of RAM, and 60 GB of SSD storage. The minimum GPU listing is a GTX 1060 or Radeon RX 580; the recommended listing is an RTX 4060, Radeon RX 7600 XT, or Intel Arc B580. These are published requirements, not a guarantee of a specific frame rate on every PC.

Minimum vs. recommended PC requirements.

Use the table as a compatibility starting point. It does not replace a launch-build benchmark, and it does not establish how well a laptop, Steam Deck, or upscaler configuration will perform.

What the requirements do not answer.

  1. Actual FPS on your exact GPU.The requirements do not guarantee a locked frame rate or identical results across scenes.
  2. Upscaling and frame-generation behavior.Check the final PC options and patch notes instead of inferring settings from a trailer.
  3. Steam Deck performance.The published PC table is not a Steam Deck compatibility result; that needs a device test.
  4. Launch-patch changes.Record the installed version if you publish a measured benchmark after release.
