System Requirements

Baldi's Basics Plus runs on modest hardware: 4 GB of RAM, a 1.5 GHz processor and 600 MB of storage cover every supported platform. It is a paid Early Access game for Windows, macOS and SteamOS or Linux, with English audio, interface and subtitles.

The Windows build requires a 64-bit processor and operating system. The Steam client itself supports only Windows 10 and later, so older Windows versions are limited by the store client rather than the game.

Early Access Notes

The game is in Early Access, and requirements may change before the full release. Planned for 1.0 are secret levels, achievements, story elements, adaptive music and improved menus; balance keeps changing until development ends. The minimum resolution is 480 by 360.

On older or low-end machines, the game's custom lighting and occlusion culling keep performance steady, and a level generation error saves the run with a new seed and offers a return to the main menu instead of crashing.

The price is set to rise when the game leaves Early Access, and the developer gives no estimate for how long Early Access will last.

A controller disconnect pauses the game, and an in-game keyboard lets controller players name save files. For a first run, start with the getting started guide.
