New Assassin's Creed Shadows Trailer Showcases PC Version Features

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, along with compatibility for ultra-wide monitors and ray tracing effects (RTGI and RT Reflections). Extensive settings are included for optimization on lower-end PCs, and a built-in benchmark tool is added for performance testing.

Minimum PC specs for 1080p/30 FPS 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/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 optimized performance on their processors. Post-launch assessments will determine AMD system performance. 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.
