A NOTE ON LOCALIZATION: Whilst City of Gangsters will support a number of languages when it releases on August 9 2021, the demo version is only playable in English.
Q: What are the required system specs? Will the game run on my machine?
A: The game is not very graphics intensive, but we recommend the following system specs.
OS: Windows 10
Processor: Intel i5/i7/i9 or AMD Ryzen
Memory: 8GB RAM
Hard drive: 1GB free
Recommended video cards (discrete graphics):
- NVidia GTX 10 series or newer (~2016)
- AMD RX series or newer (~2016)
Note:
Older video cards and integrated GPUs *should* work if they support DirectX 11 (i.e., GPUs from ~2012 or newer). But for those we recommend lowering video quality settings as follows:
1. In the main menu select "Settings", then "Graphics"
2. "Compute Shaders": turn off
3. "Quality Settings": reduce from highest to medium or low
Q: I think I found a bug! Should I do something?
A: Once you're in the game, you can press F1 to send us a bug report and a screenshot. We'd appreciate that! :)
Q: There's a visual glitch, and some/all of the buildings are missing. What happened?
A: This happens with some older GPUs. Here is a work-around while we develop a patch to fix it:
1. In the main menu select "Settings", then "Graphics"
2. Turn off the "Compute Shaders" option
3. You may want to reduce the quality settings as well, to increate framerate
Hope you enjoy the demo!
