Osiris Reborn System Requirements — Beta PC Specs & Engine
Updated September 23, 2026 · Facts cross-checked against the sources listed below
Beta PC requirements
Owlcat posted these on March 26, 2026, for the Beta. They are not the final game’s requirements.
| Minimum (Beta) | Recommended (Beta) | |
|---|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 64-bit |
| CPU | AMD Ryzen 5 5600 / Intel Core i5-10400F | AMD Ryzen 5 7600X / Intel Core i5-12600K |
| GPU | NVIDIA RTX 3060 Mobile / GTX 1080 / AMD RX 6700M / RX 6600 | NVIDIA RTX 4070 / AMD RX 7700 XT |
| RAM | 16 GB | 16 GB |
| DirectX | 12 | 12 |
| Storage | 30+ GB | 30+ GB |
A community Beta guide adds 8 GB of VRAM for minimum and 12 GB for recommended ⚠ community guide. That fits the GPUs listed, but Owlcat didn’t state it.
Final requirements: not yet
Steam’s requirement boxes currently say only “Windows 10” for both minimum and recommended. Owlcat: “We will share the final system requirements for the game closer to its release.” Owlcat’s store still shows a template with placeholders for storage size, internet connection and DRM, so none of those is decided publicly.
Engine and graphics options
The game is built on Unreal Engine 5. That comes from interviews with Owlcat’s CTO Alexey Drobyshevsky and design director Leonid Rastorguev about the switch to UE5 and rewriting parts of it for zero-G. Owlcat’s own site and posts don’t name the engine. Wccftech’s Beta hands-on lists DLSS, FSR and XeSS upscaling ⚠ one hands-on. Ray tracing and frame generation haven’t been mentioned.
Steam Deck, Mac, Linux, controllers
- Steam Deck: not rated by Valve, and nothing from Owlcat.
- Mac and Linux: no. Steam lists Windows only.
- Controllers: Steam lists partial controller support and DualShock support.
- GeForce NOW: not on NVIDIA’s supported list. See platforms.
Consoles
For the Beta on console, Owlcat recommends Xbox Series X and PS5 “for the smoothest experience”, which suggests Series S is the weakest target. The PlayStation Store listing flags PS5 Pro enhancements ⚠ pre-release store data.
Languages
English has full audio. French, German, Spanish (Spain), Russian and Simplified Chinese have interface and subtitles. Steam and the Xbox store list the same six.
