Ubisoft has revealed the system requirements for the next installment in the long-running Assassin's Creed series. The next installment will take on a chillier stance compared to the previous Egypt and Mediterranean settings via its Norse ambiance. The game is also a cross-gen release, being available on both current-gen consoles (PS4/Xbox One and variants) as well as on the PS5 and Xbox Series S/X - it should hopefully see a more recognizable graphics and systems improvement than the current-gen only Assassin's Creed installments. The PC version requires DX12 to operate, and features a built-in benchmark as well as an uncapped framerate.

Requirements-wise, we're looking at five different performance presets from Ubisoft; 1080p Low, 1080p High, 1080p High @ 60 FPS, Enthusiast (1440p @ 60 FPS with Very High Settings), and Ultra (4K @ 30 FPS with Ultra High settings). NVIDIA's Ampere 30-series cards are absent from these requirements - all you'll need for 4K Ultra is an RTX 2080 graphics card or equivalent (and thus, only an 8 GB VRAM buffer is necessary). Therefore, a 4K 60 FPS presentation should be attainable with current-gen NVIDIA enthusiast products. Look to the image below for the full rundown on graphics settings and requirements.
