over the hill System Requirements: Can Your PC Run It?

One specification is published, and it is the minimum. over the hill asks for a GTX 1070 or AMD Vega-56 at the floor, which is a surprisingly high line for a low-poly art style, and everything else in the table is mid-range 2017 hardware. The specs were published on the Steam store page with a note that they were tested at FullHD resolution; no recommended tier exists yet.

The full minimum spec

The broadband requirement is real, not boilerplate: up to 4-player online co-op is a core mode. The 4 GB storage figure is the smallest in this genre by a wide margin, so disk space will not be anyone's problem.

Why the GTX 1070 line is worth explaining

The store page pairs a minimalist art style with a fairly demanding floor, and that combination generated discussion during the June demo. Three honest readings, all sourced:

1. It is a floor, not a target. Minimum specs describe the lowest configuration the team will commit to, usually at reduced settings; they do not predict what the game needs to look good.
2. The demo ran heavy for some players. During Next Fest, performance was the most common technical complaint in community threads, and an August official post explicitly listed "optimizing the performance" among the post-demo fixes, alongside camera options and quality-of-life work. A solved Steam discussion thread titled "Devs, do you plan to fix the performance in 1.0?" is marked answered by the developers.
3. The world is doing more than the art style suggests. Terrain grip simulation, dynamic weather, a day-night cycle and seamless travel between 4 km x 4 km areas all cost more than flat-shaded visuals imply.

⚠️ Unconfirmed. No recommended spec exists as of September 19, 2026, and the developers have not published target resolutions or frame rates. Any "runs at 60 fps on X" claim you read elsewhere is not official.

Steam Deck, Mac and Linux

• Steam Deck: supported through Proton. The official FAQ commits to running "smoothly on the Steam Deck via Proton". This is a developer commitment, not the Steam "Verified" badge; check the store page badge state at launch.
• Mac: not at launch. Mac support "is not planned for the initial release, but we may consider it in the future".
• Linux: no native build. Desktop Linux play, if it works, would also be through Proton, but the official commitment is phrased around the Steam Deck only.

The full platform matrix, including consoles in 2027 and the Game Pass non-answer, lives on the platforms page.

What hardware you actually need (editor reading)

We do not benchmark games, and the game is not out, so treat this as reading the spec, not testing it: a modern six-core CPU and any GPU from the RTX or RX 6000 generations sits comfortably above every line in the table. If your machine meets the minimum exactly, plan on medium settings at 1080p as the realistic expectation, and watch the launch-week reports before deciding on upgrades. For context on what the game asks the hardware to do, see the gameplay systems; for when you can install it at all, the release date page has the October 14 timeline.
