A few days ago, Ubisoft revealed the PC system requirements for Assassin’s Creed: Shadows. In addition, the publisher revealed the game’s PC features. So, let’s take a look at them.
Ubisoft has broken the PC requirements into three categories. These are: Selective Ray Tracing, Standard Ray Tracing and Extended Ray Tracing.
So, to run the game, PC gamers will at least need an Intel Core i7 8700k or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070, and AMD Radeon RX 5700 or an Intel Arc A580. With this PC setup, you’ll be able to run AC: Shadows at 1080p/Low with 60FPS.
For gaming at 1440p/High with 60FPS, you’ll need an Intel Core i5 11600k or AMD Ryzen 5 5600X with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 or an AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT. As for 4K/High, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super or an AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT should be enough for 60FPS.
For Standard Ray Tracing, you’ll need at least an Intel Core i7 8700k or an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070, an AMD Radeon RX 6700XT or an Intel Arc B580. For gaming at 1440p/High with Standard RT and 60FPS, you’ll need an Intel Core i5 11600k or an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Super or an AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT.
Finally, to get the best Ray Tracing experience, you’ll need an Intel Core i7 13700k or an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 for 1440p/60FPS, or an NVIDIA RTX 4090 for 4K/60FPS.
Do note that all these PC specs are with upscaling. So, in case you’re wondering, no. These aren’t PC specs for native resolutions.
Assassin’s Creed: Shadows will support RTGI and Ray Tracing Reflections on PC. Moreover, it will come with a built-in benchmark tool. Players can also expect support for DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1 and XeSS 2 at launch.
Ubisoft will release Assassin’s Creed: Shadows on PC on March 20th. The game will be also using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
