About
Steep launched in 2016 as an ambitious open-world sports action game that lets you tackle massive mountain ranges across the Alps and Alaska using skis, snowboards, wingsuits, and paragliders. The game emphasizes creative freeride gameplay where you can record and share your best tricks while competing against other players online. Its core appeal lies in the freedom to carve your own lines down epic terrain and push the boundaries of extreme winter sports.
Running Steep is fairly accessible for most gaming PCs, as it doesn't demand top-tier hardware to achieve smooth performance. The minimum GPU requirement sits around entry-level cards with benchmark scores near 3078, paired with 6 GB of RAM and a modest CPU around the 2628 performance tier. Most modern mid-range GPUs will comfortably handle 60+ FPS at solid graphics settings, making this a great benchmark title for testing baseline performance across various hardware configurations.
With a respectable 77/100 rating, Steep offers engaging gameplay for fans of action sports and open-world exploration. If you enjoy creative, skill-based games with vibrant outdoor settings and competitive community features, it's worth checking out, especially given its low barrier to entry on PC hardware.
Performance profile
Released in December 2016, Steep 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.
Sports titles tend to be well-optimised — Steep typically delivers comfortable 1440p 60 FPS on mid-range hardware. If you play competitively, target 120 FPS+ for smoother animation and quicker reads.
Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in Steep; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.
