Ubisoft has released a new trailer showcasing the PC version of Assassin's Creed Shadows, highlighting its impressive features. The trailer emphasizes support for cutting-edge upscaling technologies like DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1, and XeSS 2, ensuring stunning visuals across a range of hardware. Ultra-wide monitor support is also confirmed, along with ray tracing enhancements such as RTGI and RT Reflections. For players with less powerful PCs, the developers have included extensive settings to optimize performance. A built-in benchmark tool will help players test performance and ensure compatibility.
Minimum specifications for 1080p at 30 FPS include an Intel Core i7 8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor, and an NVIDIA GTX 1070 (8GB) or AMD RX 5700 (8GB) graphics card. High-end players aiming for 4K resolution at 60 FPS with ultra settings and advanced ray tracing will need an Intel Core i7 13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, and a powerful RTX 4090 (24GB) 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. Many fans are hoping this title will avoid the stuttering issues that plagued previous installments. Mirage showed considerable improvement in this area compared to Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla, offering a positive outlook for Shadows.
Assassin's Creed Shadows launches March 20th on PC and consoles.
