How much space does Halloween: The Game need?

45 GB of free space, and it has to be on an SSD or NVMe drive. That applies at both the minimum and recommended tier, so a mechanical hard drive will not do at any spec level.

Can it run on Windows 10?

No. You need Windows 11 64-bit at both the minimum and recommended tier; Windows 10 is not supported. Check your OS before you buy.

Does it work on Steam Deck?

Valve has not rated it for Deck, so it is neither Verified nor Playable. With a Windows 11 requirement and a GTX 1660-class minimum GPU, treat the Deck as untested.

Is there a macOS or Linux version?

No. The game is Windows only on PC.

Do I need to be online to play?

Yes. A broadband internet connection is a requirement at both spec tiers.

Platform answer

Halloween: The Game system requirements

Two requirements catch people out, so check them before you buy: you need Windows 11 (Windows 10 is not supported), and the game must be installed on an SSD or NVMe drive.

Minimum and recommended PC specifications
	Minimum	Recommended
OS	Windows 11 64-bit	Windows 11 64-bit
Processor	Intel LGA 1200+ / AMD AM4+ (Zen 2+)	Intel LGA 1700+ / AMD AM5+
Memory	16 GB	32 GB
Graphics	GTX 1660+ / RX 590+ / Arc A770+ (1080p@30fps)	RTX 3000 series / RX 7000 series (4k@30fps)
DirectX	Version 12	Version 12
Storage	45 GB available space, SSD/NVMe required	45 GB available space, SSD/NVMe required
Network	Broadband internet connection	Broadband internet connection

A 64-bit processor and operating system are required at both tiers. The minimum GPU is rated for 1080p at 30fps and the recommended GPU for 4K at 30fps, so the minimum spec will not give you 60fps.

Steam Deck

Not rated. Valve has not reviewed the game for Deck, so it has no Verified, Playable or Unsupported badge. That means untested, not broken.

The 1080p30 minimum calls for a GTX 1660-class GPU, so check the spec table below against your hardware before buying it to play on Deck.
