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, ray tracing (RTGI and RT Reflections), and extensive settings for lower-end PCs, including a built-in benchmark tool.
Minimum specs for 1080p/30fps 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/60fps with ultra settings and ray tracing demand an Intel Core i7 13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU, and an RTX 4090 (24GB) GPU.
Intel partnered with Ubisoft for AC Shadows, ensuring strong optimization for their processors. Post-launch performance analysis on AMD systems is planned. The developers aim to address past stuttering issues, building on the performance improvements seen in Mirage compared to previous entries like Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla.
Assassin's Creed Shadows launches March 20th on PC and consoles.
