The premise, in the publisher's words
Valley is a first-person action-adventure that sends the player deep into a secluded, forgotten valley hidden within the Rocky Mountains. There, amid forests, ruins, and lingering traces of the past, lies an abandoned military base dating back to the Second World War, the site of secretive experiments long since left to decay. Exploring the area, the player uncovers a remarkable relic of those experiments: the L.E.A.F. suit, a piece of wartime technology that grants its wearer extraordinary, superhuman abilities of speed and agility. Empowered by the suit, the player bounds and leaps across the sprawling wilderness, delving ever deeper into the valley's mysteries. But the discovery comes…

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for 3.0+ GHZ dual core, 8 GB RAM and GTX 650 or better, Radeon HD 7770 or better. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 5GB. 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
Valley launched on 23 August 2016, within three weeks of No Man's Sky, The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt - Complete Edition, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 3 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: No Man's Sky, The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt - Complete Edition, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition.
