In just 2 months away, Ubisoft’s next entry in the Far Cry franchise will launch. In a recent blog post by Ubisoft’s Associate Communications Manager, Chris Watters, it shows that the studio has been working on optimizing Far Cry 5 for PC and that the game will support multi-GPU setups. Kirill Bragin, the PC Version Producer, says that the PC has always been part of Far Cry‘s DNA.
There will be a benchmark feature available in the game, as well as a video memory usage meter to give players the knowledge to further configure the graphical settings of Far Cry 5 to their liking. A massive open-world game like Far Cry 5, the requirements are overwhelming. It requires a GTX 1080 Ti SLI, an Intel Core i7-6700k, and a 16GB of RAM to run on 4K at 60 frames-per-second in Ultra presets.
