How many players can run SCUM?
According to the Steam Hardware Survey for September 2026, 90% of Steam players have a graphics card that meets the minimum GPU for SCUM and 79% meet the recommended one. We match every card in the survey against our GPU benchmark scores; the ones we identify add up to 82.6% of the survey, and the math runs on that part. It only measures the graphics card, not the CPU or RAM.
