About

Quantum Derelict is designed to be accessible for a wide range of PC setups. An entry-level GPU such as the GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT is sufficient to meet the minimum requirements, allowing players to experience the game with basic settings. However, for a smoother and more visually appealing experience, a mid-range GPU like the GTX 1660 Super or RX 580 is recommended, enabling 1080p resolution at medium settings.

Players with higher-end graphics cards, such as the RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT, can push the game to high settings at 1440p, fully enjoying the atmospheric visuals that enhance the eerie Lovecraftian themes. The game is not particularly demanding, making it suitable for those with older hardware while still rewarding players with modern GPUs. Overall, if you're looking for a balance of performance and visual fidelity, targeting a mid-range GPU will provide the best experience in Quantum Derelict.

Performance profile

July 2023 release. As a current-generation title, Quantum Derelict pushes modern hardware — expect to need an RTX 40-series or RX 7000-series GPU to enjoy it at native 4K Ultra without leaning on upscaling.

Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in Quantum Derelict; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.

Storyline

Stranded alone on a damaged spaceship, survival seems impossible. Yet, as the ship's resourceful engineer, you utilize scientific drones on board, repurposing them as resource gatherers to mine and salvage the materials surrounding you in the vastness of space. These adaptable drones are also capable of being re-coded to undertake crucial tasks, such as repairing weapons, maintaining life support, and upgrading communications. The ship's artificial intelligence, Ada, is your companion and guide in this daunting journey to reach out to the seemingly infinite expanse of space in hopes of finding a savior. However, the situation grows dire as sinister entities lurk in the interstellar darkness, tracking and hunting you. Your survival hinges on your ingenuity to outmaneuver the ominous cult of VUGSHERYOG and the unspeakable horrors trailing in its wake. The game charts a harrowing tale of a plunge into madness as you grapple with maintaining your sanity in the face of these alien horrors. Your personal journal logs all events, including data uncovered by Ada from the ship's mainframe, serving as a lifeline for your mental well-being. It might even bear testament to your ordeal if your journey ends in disaster.
