About

Battleborn is a hero-shooter released in 2016 by Gearbox Software, the studio behind the acclaimed Borderlands franchise. The game combines fast-paced action gameplay with a diverse roster of powerful characters, each with unique abilities and playstyles. Players team up in cooperative missions and competitive matches to fight back an intergalactic threat, blending PvE and PvP elements in a colorful, character-driven experience.

On the performance side, Battleborn is quite accessible for modern systems. The minimum GPU requirement is around entry-level performance with a benchmark score of approximately 2272, paired with 6 GB of RAM. Even older or budget graphics cards can achieve solid FPS at 1080p with moderate settings, making this a great benchmark title for testing lower-tier hardware performance and understanding baseline GPU scaling across different graphics configurations.

With a rating of 62/100, Battleborn offers decent entertainment if you enjoy hero shooters and cooperative gameplay, though it didn't achieve widespread critical acclaim. The game is best suited for players who appreciate character-driven action games and don't mind an older title with a smaller active community.

Performance profile

Released in May 2016, Battleborn 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.

Action titles like Battleborn reward high framerates for visual clarity during combat. A mid-range modern GPU at 1440p 60–120 FPS is the practical sweet spot; VRR (G-Sync/FreeSync) smooths out drops during heavy effects.

Extremely light — Battleborn 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

"Battleborn’s story is set in a distant sci-fi fantasy future, where all but one star in the universe has gone dark at the hands of the vicious Varlesi. A single solitary beacon of hope remains – the last star, Solus. In the wake of the chaos, different species of survivors take refuge in the Solus system and form five factions based on their beliefs. Heroes called battleborn emerge from each faction and fight for what little resources are left in the system. Now, the Varelsi are threatening to finish what they’ve started, and only a united team of the universe’s most powerful heroes can stop them."
