Ubisoft has recently released an exciting new trailer for Assassin's Creed Shadows, spotlighting the exceptional features of the PC version. The trailer showcases a range of advanced technologies including support for upscaling with DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1, and XeSS 2, as well as ray tracing features like RTGI and RT Reflections. Gamers can also look forward to compatibility with ultra-wide monitors and a comprehensive set of settings designed to cater to PCs with varying specifications, including lower-end systems.
Upon its release, Assassin's Creed Shadows will come equipped with a built-in benchmark tool, allowing players to test and optimize their system's performance. This feature is particularly useful for ensuring smooth gameplay across different hardware configurations.
To enjoy the game at 1080p resolution and 30 FPS, the minimum system requirements include an Intel Core i7 8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor, along with an NVIDIA GTX 1070 (8 GB) or AMD RX 5700 (8 GB) GPU. For those aiming for 4K resolution at 60 FPS with ultra settings and advanced ray tracing, a more powerful setup is necessary: an Intel Core i7 13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, paired with an RTX 4090 (24 GB) graphics card.
Ubisoft has collaborated with Intel to optimize Assassin's Creed Shadows specifically for their processors, promising a smoother experience for users with Intel hardware. Performance on AMD systems will be evaluated following the game's launch. Fans are particularly interested to see if the game will overcome the stuttering issues that plagued previous entries in the series. Notably, the recent Assassin's Creed Mirage demonstrated significant improvements in performance compared to earlier titles like Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla.
Assassin's Creed Shadows is set to launch on March 20 for both PC and consoles, promising an immersive and technically advanced gaming experience.
