GamiPrime may earn a commission on the link below. How this works.
The short version: RAID: Shadow Legends is rated Mixed (61.0% of 2,790 reviews), and the English-only split is also Mixed (59.4% of 1,440 reviews). It lists an 8 GB RAM floor on both the minimum and the recommended tier, the same figure on both, and it needs 5 to 8 GB of storage, far smaller than most free PC games we track (Zenless Zone Zero lists 75 GB and Arena Breakout: Infinite lists 70 GB, both identical on minimum and recommended, the same zero-gap pattern at a much larger size; Zenless Zone Zero's all-languages Steam rating also runs far higher, at 87.8% positive, so the two games are not comparable on reception, only on storage pattern).

Why Should I Play RAID: Shadow Legends?
The clearest positive signal is a recent uptick, not the all-time score. Steam shows 61.0% positive across all 2,790 reviews (1,702 positive, 1,088 negative), labeled Mixed, and 59.4% positive among the 1,440 reviews Steam classes as English (855 positive, 585 negative), also Mixed. Of the 200 most recent English reviews, from February 14 to October 2, 2026, 130 are positive (65.0%), a few points above the all-time English share. The two language splits also sit within a couple of points of each other, unlike free PC games where the English share runs well ahead of the all-languages share. The game's long run on Steam since January 9, 2024 is itself a signal of staying power in a crowded genre. Not hands-on tested.
Does RAID: Shadow Legends cost anything?
Nothing to start. Steam lists RAID: Shadow Legends as free, with in-app purchases. This article does not evaluate what that costs or whether it affects progression, since that sits outside what GamiPrime can verify from the listing alone. See the guide to how free-to-play PC games make money for what an in-app-purchases flag generally does and does not tell you before you spend.
