About

The Expanse: A Telltale Series (2023) is a narrative-driven adventure RPG set in the grimy depths of space during a mutiny aboard the Artemis. You play as XO Camina Drummer, where your dialogue choices and decisions directly impact the story's outcome and the fate of your crew. The game draws heavily from the popular science fiction universe and focuses on character-driven storytelling rather than action-heavy gameplay.

This is an accessible title for most gaming PCs, requiring only modest hardware to run smoothly. You'll need at least an entry-level GPU with a score around 3090 and a CPU benchmark of approximately 2662, along with 6 GB of RAM minimum. Even on budget graphics settings, most modern integrated graphics can handle this game at playable FPS rates, making it an excellent choice for older systems or laptops looking for an engaging story without heavy performance demands.

With a solid 73/100 rating, The Expanse offers a compelling narrative experience for fans of choice-driven adventures and science fiction. If you enjoy Telltale-style games with meaningful decision-making over graphical intensity, this one's worth your time.

Performance profile

July 2023 release. As a current-generation title, The Expanse: A Telltale Series 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.

RPGs like The Expanse: A Telltale Series 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.

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