A Korean source, which has since been deleted, apparently leaked the minimum and recommended requirements for Assassin’s Creed: Unity on PC. The minimum requirements are surprisingly high.
The leak came from Intra Games, a Korean distributor of Ubisoft games, and was translated and posted on the gaming forum NeoGAF. Many commentators there and on Reddit argue the minimum requirements seem too high to be real, while other claim that it’s because Ubisoft doesn’t optimize its PC releases. Read the requirements below:
– OS: Windows® 7 SP1, Windows® 8/8.1 (Only 64-bit supports)
– CPU: Minimum – Intel Core® i5-2500K @ 3.3 GHz or AMD FX-8350 @ 4.0 GHz or above
Recommended – Intel Core® i7-3770 @ 3.4 GHz or AMD FX-8350 @ 4.0 GHz or above
– RAM: Minimum – 6GB or above
Recommended – 8GB or above
– GPU: Minimum – NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 680 or AMD Radeon HD 7970 or above
Graphic Memory minimum – 2GB
Recommended – NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 780 or AMD Radeon R9 290X or above
Graphic Memory Recommended – 3 GB
– Sound Card: DX9.0c-compatible
– HDD: above 50 GB
– Multiplayer: 256 kbps Upload bandwidth or Higher
The graphics requirements stand out the most. The minimum requirement of 2GB is double that of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare’s 1GB minimum.
Assassin’s Creed: Unity is one of a collection of AC games coming out in the following months. It’s a third person action adventure game set in revolutionary France in the 18th century. It will be released on November 11th (13th in Europe), so we expect to have confirmed PC requirements soon.
