PC system requirements

As published on the Steam store page for Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. The two tiers are unusually explicit about what they are targeting, which makes them more useful than most spec sheets.

Three lines worth reading twice

  • A CPU with 4 cores and 8 threads is required at both tiers.
  • The GPU must support DirectX 12.1 and Shader Model 6.6 — an older card with enough VRAM will still be refused.
  • An SSD is required, not recommended. This is the one line people miss.

How it actually performs

Spec sheets state a target; this measures what the consoles hit. Useful on PC too, because it shows which settings the game is most sensitive to.

Frame-rate and resolution analysis across consoles, for anyone deciding where to play it.

Where else it runs

Beyond PC it is on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and it was on Xbox Game Pass from launch day with Xbox Play Anywhere support. On PC it is sold on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
