About

A Year of Rain, released in 2019, is a unique blend of indie RPG and strategy game that emphasizes team-oriented gameplay and a strong focus on heroes. With its combination of base building and expansive story campaigns, the game captures the essence of traditional real-time strategy while offering co-op campaigns for each of its three factions. The inclusion of 2v2 modes like "Skirmish" and "Against all Odds" makes it a notable entry in the genre, inviting players to strategize together.

In terms of PC performance, A Year of Rain is relatively accessible, requiring only an entry-level GPU with a minimum score of around 6138 and a CPU score of approximately 5686. For optimal FPS, a setup with at least 8 GB of RAM is recommended. Gamers looking to enjoy this title comfortably should consider mid-tier GPUs such as the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 or AMD Radeon RX 560, which can handle moderate graphics settings while providing stable frame rates.

Should you play A Year of Rain? With a rating of 50/100, it might not be for everyone, but fans of the indie and strategy genres may find enjoyment in its cooperative elements and unique gameplay mechanics. If you appreciate team-based strategy games with RPG features, this game could still be worth your time.

Performance profile

November 2019 release. A Year of Rain was built around the GTX 10-series / RX Vega era. Current-gen mid-range cards (RTX 4060 / RX 7600) are overkill at 1080p and handle 1440p Ultra comfortably.

As a strategy title, A Year of Rain is typically CPU-bound rather than GPU-bound — single-thread CPU performance dictates framerate during large-scale battles, end-game saves and late-game AI turns. A fast modern 6-core will help more than a GPU upgrade.

Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in A Year of Rain. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.

Storyline

War came upon the lands. Crashing like roaring tide on brittle coast, so reckless it tore veils between worlds apart. The dead littered the land where they fell, leaving rock and soil defiled under a crimson shroud adorned with pale bones. Kingdoms crumbled and skeletal ruins are now the only witness to the symphony of decay. Life, as it always does, found a foothold where death held dominion. For a short time, what was barren, became green once more where the rain poured down in soothing cascades. But war is in peoples' blood… and it will come upon the lands once more.
