Assassin's Creed: Shadows Trailer Highlights Optimized PC Features

Ubisoft's new trailer for Assassin's Creed Shadows showcases enhanced PC features. The trailer highlights support for upscaling technologies like DLSS 3.7, FSR 3.1, and XeSS 2, along with ultra-wide monitor compatibility, RTGI, RT Reflections, and extensive settings for lower-end PCs, including a built-in benchmark tool.

Minimum specs for 1080p/30 FPS 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/60 FPS 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. AMD performance will be evaluated after launch. The developers aim to address stuttering issues that plagued previous series entries; Mirage's performance improvements over Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla offer hope for smoother gameplay.

Assassin's Creed Shadows launches March 20th on PC and consoles.
