System Requirements

ROAR System Requirements

These requirements are estimated and may change during development. They are intended to give a clear view of expected PC / Steam performance.

Important Note

ROAR is still in development, so final requirements may change after optimization, hardware testing, and Unreal Engine 5 performance tuning.

Requirements by Performance Target

Tier Target CPU GPU Memory Storage OS Expected Settings
Minimum 1080p / 30 FPS Intel Core i5-10400 or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 NVIDIA GTX 1660 or AMD RX 5600 XT 16 GB 50 GB SSD Windows 10 64-bit Low / Medium
Recommended 1080p / 60 FPS Intel Core i7-12700 or AMD Ryzen 7 5800X NVIDIA RTX 3070 or AMD RX 6800 32 GB 50 GB NVMe SSD Windows 10 / 11 64-bit High
High 1440p / 60 FPS Intel Core i7-13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7700X NVIDIA RTX 4070 or AMD RX 7800 XT 32 GB 50 GB NVMe SSD Windows 11 64-bit High / Ultra
Ultra 4K / 60 FPS Intel Core i9-13900K or AMD Ryzen 9 7900X NVIDIA RTX 4080 or AMD RX 7900 XTX 32–64 GB 50 GB NVMe SSD Windows 11 64-bit Ultra

Performance Notes

SSD Required

ROAR uses detailed environments, so SSD storage is recommended, with NVMe preferred to reduce streaming stutter.

Memory

16 GB is the entry point, but 32 GB is better for a stable experience, especially on high settings.

GPU Priority

Because ROAR relies on cinematic lighting, shadows, dense foliage, and atmospheric effects, the GPU is the biggest performance factor.

Resolution

1440p and 4K require stronger hardware, especially with shadows, fog, and environmental detail set to Ultra.

Expected Graphics Options

  • Resolution Scale
  • Texture Quality
  • Shadow Quality
  • Foliage Density
  • Volumetric Fog
  • View Distance
  • Post Processing
  • Motion Blur
  • VSync
  • Frame Rate Limit
  • Upscaling Support such as DLSS / FSR if approved later

Quick Questions

Can ROAR run on an HDD?

It may run technically, but the experience is not guaranteed. SSD is the correct choice for this type of environment.

Does ROAR require RTX?

Not for the minimum target, but RTX-class GPUs or equivalents are better for higher stability and visual quality.

Are these requirements final?

No. These are estimated and will change based on optimization and testing.

Will ROAR support Steam Deck?

Steam Deck support is not confirmed yet. It will be announced later if tested and approved.

Pre-Launch Notice

These numbers are not final. This page will be updated closer to release after performance testing across multiple hardware configurations.
