TERRIBLE LIZARDS / 2026

Terrible Lizards system requirements

The Terrible Lizards system requirements list Windows 10, 6 GB RAM, GTX 1050 2GB or RX 560 2GB, and 25 GB available space as minimum. Recommended specifications list Windows 11, 12 GB RAM and RTX 2080 or RX 6800 XT. Both tiers require a 64-bit CPU and OS; compare the exact CPU and DirectX entries below.

Check three published requirements

Enter your installed system RAM, free space on the installation drive, and whether both CPU and OS are 64-bit.

Enter all three details to compare them with the published limits.

Reading the Terrible Lizards system requirements

Start with the minimum column to find a published requirement that your PC misses. Then compare the recommended column for the developer’s higher listed configuration. Keep the rows together: meeting the RAM requirement cannot compensate for an incompatible graphics card or operating system.

The store does not identify a frame-rate target, screen resolution or graphics preset for either tier. “Recommended” therefore does not mean a verified maximum-settings or 60 FPS guarantee. This page compares published specifications; it has not benchmarked the game on those machines.

Find the details you need before comparing

In Windows Settings, System → About normally shows the processor, installed RAM and system type. Task Manager’s Performance tab can help identify the GPU and distinguish system memory from dedicated graphics memory. Windows labels can vary by version and language.

For storage, inspect free space on the drive where the game will be installed. A large drive with little free capacity can still miss the 25 GB requirement. If a laptop shows both integrated and dedicated graphics, record both models and check which one the game actually uses.

Compare complete CPU and GPU names

The minimum CPU choices are an Intel Core i5-6400 or AMD Ryzen 3 1200; recommended choices are a Core i3-10100F or Ryzen 3 3100. Do not rank these by the i3 or i5 label alone. Generation and full model matter, so a processor family name without its model is not enough for a decision.

The graphics rows also name specific models. A different card with the same amount of video memory is not automatically equivalent. The 2GB beside GTX 1050 and RX 560 is graphics memory, separate from the computer’s 6 or 12 GB system RAM. This guide does not invent performance rankings for unlisted GPUs.

Interpret RAM, available space and 64-bit results

For the RAM row alone, 8 GB is above the 6 GB minimum and below the 12 GB recommendation. It does not establish overall compatibility. A 12 GB RAM result still leaves the CPU, graphics card, Windows version and DirectX rows to check.

Both tiers list 25 GB available space. That is not a promise that the download, installed files or future updates always occupy exactly 25 GB. Both tiers also require a 64-bit processor and OS: having a 64-bit CPU does not prove that the installed operating system is 64-bit.

Windows requirements and platform differences

Steam lists Windows 10 for minimum and Windows 11 for recommended, with DirectX 11 and 12 respectively. Its native platform listing is Windows; it does not list native macOS or Linux releases. Compatibility layers or player reports should not be presented as official native support.

The official publisher also links PlayStation, Xbox and Epic Games Store editions. These PC requirements are not installation instructions for PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. Epic repeats the RAM, GPU, storage and DirectX figures, but its CPU field only says 64bit; Steam supplies the specific CPU models used here.

Demo, controllers and handheld expectations

Steam provides a separate free demo and lists full controller support for the main game. Trying the demo can help you judge movement and your input preferences, but a short demo session cannot verify performance in every full-game cavern, chase or later level.

Controller support does not certify every device feature, Bluetooth configuration or handheld. A graphics preset named for a handheld is also different from a current compatibility rating. This page makes no Steam Deck certification claim and does not invent fixed button layouts or best-settings measurements.

Choose the next step from the comparison

If one entered value is below its published threshold, resolve that specific gap before treating the result as a match. If a detail is unknown, leave it unknown and find the actual specification. Passing the partial form means only that those entered values meet the displayed numeric requirements.

If the hardware appears to match but the game crashes or slows down, use the separate crashing guide to distinguish a process crash, a performance problem and a progression lock. Patch 1.0.9 lists several specific fixes; it does not promise to eliminate every crash. Record your store, installed version, affected chapter and error message when seeking support.

Player questions

Terrible Lizards system requirements

What CPU and graphics card are required at minimum?

Steam names an Intel Core i5-6400 or AMD Ryzen 3 1200 and an NVIDIA GTX 1050 2GB or AMD RX 560 2GB. These are only two rows of the requirement table; RAM, Windows, DirectX, storage and 64-bit support still matter.

Can I decide compatibility from 8 GB of RAM?

No. Eight GB clears the listed 6 GB minimum RAM row but not the 12 GB recommended RAM row. It does not check your CPU, GPU, operating system or actual performance.

Is 25 GB the exact download size?

No exact download size is established by that figure. Steam specifies 25 GB of available storage for both tiers. Check free space on the installation drive and any current installer or update requirements.

Are Windows 10 and a 64-bit CPU enough?

They cover only part of the table. Minimum also requires a 64-bit operating system and the listed CPU/GPU, RAM and DirectX conditions. The native Steam listing does not include macOS or Linux.

Does recommended hardware guarantee 60 FPS?

The checked official requirement rows give no FPS, resolution or graphics-preset target. Recommended hardware is a comparison baseline, not a benchmark result or guarantee against stutter and crashes.

Does full controller support mean Steam Deck is certified?

No. Controller support and handheld compatibility ratings are separate. Check the current store/device compatibility information; this guide has not tested Steam Deck or every controller configuration.
