Ubisoft has recently released an exciting new trailer for Assassin's Creed Shadows, showcasing the remarkable features of the upcoming PC version. The trailer dives into the game's support for cutting-edge upscaling technologies, compatibility with ultra-wide monitors, and the inclusion of advanced graphical enhancements like RTGI and RT Reflections. Additionally, the developers have gone the extra mile to ensure that the game is accessible on lower-spec PCs with extensive customizable settings.
Upon its release, the PC version will boast support for the latest in upscaling technology, including DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1, and XeSS 2. To help players optimize their gaming experience, a built-in benchmark tool will be available for performance testing, and the game will fully support ultra-wide monitors for an immersive gameplay experience.
For those aiming to play at 1080p resolution and maintain a smooth 30 FPS, the minimum system requirements include an Intel Core i7 8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor, coupled with either an NVIDIA GTX 1070 (8 GB) or an AMD RX 5700 (8 GB) GPU. However, for enthusiasts looking to experience the game at 4K resolution with 60 FPS on ultra settings and with advanced ray tracing, a more robust setup is necessary: an Intel Core i7 13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, and an RTX 4090 (24 GB) graphics card.
In a strategic move, the developers have collaborated with Intel to optimize Assassin's Creed Shadows for their processors. While performance on AMD systems will be evaluated after the game's launch, fans are particularly hopeful that the title will not suffer from the stuttering problems that plagued earlier entries in the series. Notably, the previous release, Mirage, showed substantial improvements in this area compared to Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla.
Assassin's Creed Shadows is set to launch on March 20 for both PC and consoles, promising an enhanced gaming experience for fans worldwide.
