About

12 Orbits, released in 2016, is an engaging blend of action, casual, indie, and sports genres. This colorful and chaotic multiplayer game features simple mechanics where players only need one button to control their actions. Rounds are quick, lasting about five minutes, making it an ideal choice for fast-paced gaming sessions with friends or family.

In terms of PC performance, 12 Orbits is quite accessible, running effectively on entry-level hardware. With a minimum GPU score of around 300, players can expect decent FPS even with basic graphics settings. For smooth gameplay, a low-end GPU such as the Intel HD Graphics 4000 or equivalent is recommended, ensuring enjoyable performance without requiring high-end specifications.

Given its solid rating of 80/100, 12 Orbits is a delightful option for those seeking a fun and lighthearted gaming experience. If you appreciate fast-paced action games that are easy to pick up and play, this title is definitely worth your time.

Performance profile

Released in October 2016, 12 Orbits sits in the DirectX 11 generation. Comfortable on any modern mid-range GPU at 1440p; even an RTX 3050 or RX 6600 typically delivers 4K60 at High settings.

Sports titles tend to be well-optimised — 12 Orbits typically delivers comfortable 1440p 60 FPS on mid-range hardware. If you play competitively, target 120 FPS+ for smoother animation and quicker reads.

Extremely light — 12 Orbits runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

Play with everybody at once. Anywhere. Anytime. 12 orbits doesn't require any prior knowledge, preparation time or additional controllers. Your left and right Joy-Con, or even the touch screen alone, are all you need for any number of players. The only limit is how close you'd like to be together. 12 orbits is colorful, friendly, fun, and sometimes a little chaotic. You will score goals, color spheres, defend your territory and try to grow as long as possible in 4 varied game modes. It’s you against all comers, or grouped as teams. With simple rules and only one button per player, 12 orbits can be taught to anyone in no time. You can set up a new game in a matter of seconds, even for 12 players. And since each round only lasts about 5 minutes, there's always time for another quick match!
