Steam Publishes Minimum and Recommended PC Requirements
The minimum lists 64-bit Windows 10 or 11, 16 GB RAM, 30 GB storage, DirectX 11 and a dedicated GPU with at least 6 GB VRAM.
What the official update confirms
The recommended tier keeps 16 GB RAM, raises VRAM to 8 GB, names RTX 2070 or newer as an example, and recommends DirectX 12 plus an SSD. This wording comes from official Nivalis Nights store information, community Q&A or a dated ION LANDS development post. It is presented as a confirmed pre-release update rather than a finished-game walkthrough.
Why this matters for players
Neither tier promises a resolution or frame rate, so the requirements cannot yet support definitive 1080p, 1440p or 4K performance claims. That distinction helps players plan for launch without turning a promotional example into an unsupported rule, ranking or guaranteed outcome.
What we will verify next
Final guidance will use release-build benchmarks across dense districts, weather, interiors and business screens. This page will be revised when a newer official announcement or reproducible release-build evidence changes the answer.
