Yesterday we got a glimpse at Assassins Creed Shadows story for the first time in a new trailer on Ubisoft’s Youtube page. As for all our PC players out there, you are probably wondering, can my PC run it? Well, we got all the details right here for you.

Can my PC run it?

Like all PC games, in Assassins Creed Shadows, the settings are fully customizable. There are lots of standard practices such as turning off anti-aliasing to gain better performance. If you have a Nvidia Geforce Graphics card, you can always use their app that helps you auto customize the settings to best suite your needs.

There is also a website called, Can My PC Run it that will scan your computer and match it to the games specifications to see what your PC can handle. Assassins Creed Shadows is not yet listed, but come closer to the release date, the website should have it listed by then.

Keep in mind, just because it says your PC can run Assassins Creed Shadows it at max settings, doesn’t mean you won’t have issues. It may involve you getting in to the weeds a bit and turning some settings down to gain frame rates/better performance.

Below is a run down of everything you see on the image above.
