Ubisoft has released a new trailer showcasing the impressive PC features of Assassin's Creed Shadows. The trailer highlights support for cutting-edge upscaling technologies, ultra-wide monitor compatibility, Ray Tracing Global Illumination (RTGI), Ray Tracing Reflections, and extensive customization options for players with less powerful PCs.
At launch, the PC version will boast compatibility with DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1, and XeSS 2, ensuring optimal performance across a wide range of hardware. A built-in benchmark tool will allow players to easily test performance and confirm compatibility with ultra-wide monitors.
Minimum specifications for 1080p at 30 FPS include an Intel Core i7 8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor, and an NVIDIA GTX 1070 (8 GB) or AMD RX 5700 (8 GB) graphics card. For a stunning 4K 60 FPS experience at ultra settings with advanced ray tracing, players will need an Intel Core i7 13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, and a powerful RTX 4090 (24 GB) graphics card.
Ubisoft has partnered with Intel to optimize Assassin's Creed Shadows for their processors, promising strong performance. Post-launch performance assessments on AMD systems will follow. Players are keenly awaiting the game's release, hoping for a smooth experience free from the stuttering issues that plagued previous entries. Mirage showed significant improvement in this area compared to Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla, offering a glimmer of hope for a more polished experience.
Assassin's Creed Shadows will launch on March 20th for PC and consoles.
