Ubisoft's new Assassin's Creed Shadows trailer showcases enhanced PC features. The trailer highlights support for upscaling technologies like DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1, and XeSS 2, ultra-wide monitor compatibility, RTGI, RT Reflections, and extensive configuration options for less powerful PCs, including a built-in benchmark tool.
Minimum specifications for 1080p/30 FPS gameplay include an Intel Core i7 8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU, and an NVIDIA GTX 1070 (8GB) or AMD RX 5700 (8GB) GPU. High-end requirements for 4K/60 FPS with ultra settings and ray tracing demand an Intel Core i7 13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU, and an RTX 4090 (24GB) graphics card.
Developed in partnership with Intel, the game promises strong optimization for Intel processors. AMD system performance will be evaluated after release. The developers aim to address stuttering issues that plagued previous Assassin's Creed games, building on the performance improvements seen in Mirage over Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla.
Assassin's Creed Shadows launches March 20th on PC and consoles.
