About

Derelict, released in 2016, is a post-apocalyptic top-down sandbox roguelike that invites players to explore the remnants of humanity's once-thriving presence in space. Waking from stasis after a long period of desolation, players navigate through countless derelict spacecraft, abandoned space stations, and desolate settlements that are teeming with loot and dangers. The gameplay is notable for its emphasis on resource management and exploration, creating a unique blend of tension and discovery that keeps players engaged.

PC gamers who enjoy a challenge will find Derelict appealing, especially if they appreciate roguelike mechanics that encourage a trial-and-error approach. The game features a moderate difficulty level that caters to players who like to strategize and experiment, as each playthrough offers new opportunities and obstacles. Its replayability is bolstered by the procedurally generated environments, ensuring that every experience is distinct while appealing to those who savor in-depth gameplay and exploration.

While Derelict has received a mixed rating of 50/100, fans of the genre may still find its combination of rogue elements and sandbox freedom worthwhile. If you enjoy exploring vast, abandoned worlds and can appreciate games that prioritize gameplay over graphics, it might be worth giving this PC game a try despite its average reception.

Performance profile

Released in July 2016, Derelict 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 Derelict 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 — Derelict 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.
