What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Dual Core or equivalent, 2 GB RAM and Intel HD graphics 4000. At 2GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 2GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Keen launched on 25 June 2020, within three weeks of The Last of Us Part II, Fortnite, Desperados III and Persona 4 Golden. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 3 years into the Nintendo Switch's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: The Last of Us Part II, Fortnite, Desperados III, Persona 4 Golden.
