What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Pentium or higher, 2 GB RAM and 640x360, 32-bit colour: 700 Mhz system minimum. 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 3GB. 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
Unavowed launched on 8 August 2018, within three weeks of Dead Cells, Overcooked! 2, Two Point Hospital and Donut County. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 1 year into the Nintendo Switch's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Dead Cells, Overcooked! 2, Two Point Hospital, Donut County.
