About

Knight Eternal, released in 2019, is a captivating indie RPG that harks back to the 90s handheld gaming era. Players journey alongside the protagonist, Dylan, and his companions—the angel Astraea, princess Primrose, and her loyal retainer Goliath. This adventure not only offers engaging storytelling but also features charming pixel art graphics that evoke nostalgia for classic RPGs.

In terms of PC performance, Knight Eternal is quite accessible, making it an ideal choice for gamers with entry-level hardware. With a minimum GPU requirement of around 300 points and just 2 GB of RAM needed, players can expect decent FPS even on budget systems. For smooth gameplay and optimal graphics settings, you might consider a low to mid-tier GPU from recent generations, which can elevate the experience significantly without demanding high-end performance.

Should you dive into this enchanting title? With its unique blend of adventure and nostalgic charm, Knight Eternal is definitely worth a play, especially for fans of indie RPGs. Its overall positive ratings reflect its engaging narrative and accessible gameplay, making it a delightful addition to your gaming library.

Performance profile

November 2019 release. Knight Eternal 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.

RPGs like Knight Eternal stress VRAM during long sessions — texture streaming, mods and open-world traversal inflate memory use over time. 8 GB VRAM is a practical floor; 12 GB+ is worth the headroom at 1440p and above.

Extremely light — Knight Eternal 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

The world of Ambrose is no stranger to calamity. After the rule of a tyrannical dragon, the machinations of a mad wizard, and a great flood that submerged entire continents, the citizens of Ambrose are long overdue for peace. A decade has passed since the great flood. Dylan and his father Uno are sent on a mission to investigate Zamaste, a kingdom that was banished to the depths of the ocean centuries ago. During their trip across the sea, a mysterious woman falls from the sky and crash-lands on Dylan’s ship. With no memories or knowledge of her purpose whatsoever, the young woman is just as confused as Dylan is. Dylan gives the angel a name, Astraea, and agrees to help her recover her memories. After Dylan and Astraea are sent to rescue Primrose, the princess of Zamaste, the queen has an unusual request. Dylan must bring his new companions, Primrose and her retainer Goliath, to see the world while also working to discover Astraea’s true identity.
