About

Vanguard Exiles, released in 2025, is a fresh take on the auto-battler genre, crafted by renowned game designer Richard Garfield. This early access title challenges players to strategize with their unique Squads, featuring Units and Actions that come with distinct traits and abilities. Set in an ever-evolving battlefield, players must adapt their tactics to outmaneuver opponents, making each match an engaging experience that emphasizes both strategy and planning.

When it comes to PC performance, Vanguard Exiles is quite accessible, with a minimum GPU requirement of an entry-level graphics card that scores around 631. For optimal FPS and to comfortably handle higher graphics settings, gamers may consider mid-tier GPUs like the NVIDIA GTX 1650 or AMD Radeon RX 5500. With at least 8 GB of RAM, players can expect seamless performance, allowing for smooth gameplay as they manage their Squads against competitive foes.

If you enjoy strategy games that demand quick thinking and adaptability, then Vanguard Exiles is worth exploring. Its unique gameplay mechanics and engaging environments have garnered positive attention, making it a solid choice for both seasoned strategy veterans and newcomers alike.

Performance profile

March 2025 release. As a current-generation title, Vanguard Exiles 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.

As a strategy title, Vanguard Exiles is typically CPU-bound rather than GPU-bound — single-thread CPU performance dictates framerate during large-scale battles, end-game saves and late-game AI turns. A fast modern 6-core will help more than a GPU upgrade.

Extremely light — Vanguard Exiles 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

Following the cataclysm that was the Day of Ash, the exiled people of each of the world’s factions were thrust into a war-torn realm. With survival hinging on putting differences aside, Generals like you came forward to band exiles from any faction to form Vanguards; and lead them into battle to reclaim the broken world before them.
