Death's Door: PC requirements and the PC you need

About Death's Door

Death's Door is an action-adventure from Acid Nerve. You play a small crow whose job is collecting the souls of the dead, but when a soul you were sent for is stolen you must chase the thief into a strange land where nothing has died for a very long time. Seen from above, it mixes sword fighting, magic, puzzles and tough boss battles. It is single player and rated PEGI 12. The makers recommend a GTX 1050 or RX 580 and 8 GB of memory, so any of our gaming PCs handles it easily.

What Death's Door needs

In plain words: to play at all it needs almost any graphics, even the graphics built into the processor, and to play it well the makers suggest basic graphics: built-in graphics on a modern processor, or an old entry-level card, with 8GB of memory.

A low-spec PC or a high-spec PC?

This is a light game: almost any of our gaming PCs will run it comfortably at high settings.

On a PC that only just meets the minimum, the game will start and play, but on low settings: simpler shadows and textures, shorter view distances and fewer frames each second, so fast moments can feel less smooth. A 1080p screen is the sensible match.

On a PC that meets or beats the recommended spec, you can turn the settings up: sharper textures, proper shadows and lighting, more detail in the distance, and a smoother picture. A stronger PC also lets you use a sharper 1440p or high-refresh screen.

Questions about Death's Door on PC

How we match: we compare the graphics card and the memory in each PC with the makers' spec, because those decide most of how a game runs. For very new or demanding games, ask us and we will check the processor too. More help: graphics cards explained, how much RAM, which screen.
