The Crimson Hunt System Requirements — Minimum and Recommended Specs

The Crimson Hunt asks for a 64-bit system, 16 GB of RAM, DirectX 12 and 20 GB of free storage at both tiers, with Windows 10, an Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 2600 and a GeForce GTX 1060 or Radeon RX 580 as the minimum, and Windows 11, an Intel Core i7-10510 or Ryzen 5 3600 and a GeForce RTX 3060TI or Radeon RX 5700 as the recommendation.

Minimum and recommended at a glance

Both lists come from the store page requirement block. Memory, DirectX and storage are identical across the two, so the upgrade path runs through the operating system, the processor and the graphics card.

Requirement	Minimum	Recommended
Architecture	Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system	Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS	Windows 10	Windows 11
Processor	Intel Core i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 5 2600	Intel Core i7-10510 or AMD Ryzen 5 3600
Memory	16 GB RAM	16 GB RAM
Graphics	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 580	NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060TI or AMD Radeon RX 5700
DirectX	Version 12	Version 12
Storage	20 GB available space	20 GB available space

The listing says nothing about resolution or frame rate at either tier, so the table is a hardware bar rather than a performance promise.

What actually changes between the tiers

Reading the two lists side by side leaves four concrete differences and three entries that never move.

• OS moves from Windows 10 to Windows 11.
• Processor moves from a 6-core i5-8400 or Ryzen 5 2600 class part to an i7-10510 or Ryzen 5 3600 class part.
• Graphics moves from GTX 1060 or RX 580 class to RTX 3060TI or RX 5700 class.
• Memory stays at 16 GB, which is the same at both tiers.
• DirectX stays at version 12, so no older feature level is accepted.
• Storage stays at 20 GB of available space, not total drive size.
• The 64-bit requirement is repeated in both lists.

That pattern is worth noting for older machines: a 64-bit Windows 10 build with a GTX 1060-class card, 16 GB of RAM and a spare 20 GB is the published floor, and nothing in the listing promises headroom above it.

Controller, audio and comfort settings

Input is covered by full controller support, and the store page controller panel reports full Xbox-style support as true with no separate PlayStation controller flags and no flag saying keyboard support is missing. A gamepad is therefore supported rather than required.

The listing also carries Camera Comfort, Custom Volume Controls and Stereo Sound as feature tags. Camera Comfort is the only one of the three that touches how the game plays rather than how it sounds, and it is listed as a first-class feature rather than an accessibility add-on.

What the requirements page does not state

No target resolution, no frame rate target, no SSD requirement, no minimum driver version, no VR support line and no optional language pack details are published. The macOS and Linux requirement blocks exist in the app details record but are empty, which matches the Windows-only platform listing.

There is also no stated internet requirement: the game is listed as single-player and local co-op rather than online multiplayer, and the listing does not ask for a broadband connection.

Where to go next

The platform picture behind these requirements is on the platforms page, the launch facts are on release date, and the whole fact set is collected on the cheat sheet.
