The Windows build has a light 3 GB storage requirement but still calls for 8 GB RAM, GTX 1050 Ti-class graphics, DirectX 11, and broadband for online play.
Shift At Midnight currently requires a 64-bit Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC, an Intel Core i5-10400F-class processor, 8 GB RAM, GTX 1050 Ti-class graphics, DirectX 11, broadband, and 3 GB of available storage. Steam cloud saves were added in the August customer update.

| Network | Broadband connection |

Steam publishes only one requirements tier, so there is no official recommended target to quote. The small install size also does not guarantee smooth performance on integrated graphics; use the named GPU class rather than storage as the performance signal.
The Steam feature list includes single-player, multiplayer, online co-op, achievements, adjustable text size, custom volume controls, stereo sound, and Family Sharing. It does not currently show Steam's full- or partial-controller-support category. The Xbox version naturally uses Xbox controls, but that does not prove the same support status for the Steam build.
Cloud saves are now explicitly part of the Steam update history. If an older guide says progress is local-only, it predates the August change. Back up important saves before switching branches or troubleshooting multiplayer; cloud synchronization is not the same as cross-store progression between Steam and Xbox.
