About

To enjoy a smooth gaming experience, an entry-level GPU like the GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT is recommended. This title isn't particularly demanding, making it accessible for most systems. With a minimum of 2 GB of RAM, even lower-end hardware can run the game reasonably well, but for better performance and visuals, a mid-range GPU such as the GTX 1660 or RX 580 would be ideal.

At 1080p resolution, you can expect to achieve decent frame rates on lower settings with the minimum GPUs. For those using mid-range options, higher settings should still provide a smooth experience while maintaining good visual quality. Overall, this game is well-suited for both casual gamers and those looking to relive the classic dungeon crawler experience without needing top-tier hardware. If you have an entry-level GPU, you can comfortably dive into the adventure without much concern for system strain.

Performance profile

Released in June 2021, E.x.p.l.o.r.: A New World targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.

Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in E.x.p.l.o.r.: A New World; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.
