    Assassin's Creed: Syndicate performance and Hardware Recommendations

    Hello, guys!
    I only want to know, will be Syndicate available to play on lower performances?
    I mean many people can't play Unity because the performances are quite demanding.
    That's a pity, it's to me to buy a better computer parts for only one game.
    But still thanks, for such good work.

    Unity was demanding because it is such a big game but Syndicate looks to be even bigger.... Unity could be played with less than minimum specification but it was at a lower resolution and it did not do it justice.

    I think the gtx 680 is over 3 years old and I still consider it a fantastic card but games are becoming more demanding now because we gamers are never satisfied and want more.

    I know it is expensive to upgrade PC's but sometimes you should treat yourself.

    Nobody knows yet what we will need (especially me) my guesses are terrible but I think Unity's spec would be the starting point... maybe 8GB ram instead of 6GB.So far it looks like a huge game and amazing... I will probably upgrade myself.... not just for 1 game but for all games in the future.

    I think with less interiors we'll see some better performance. I think they also learned a lot of things about the new iteration of their engine that they're working with. That being said, though, I don't think we're going to see a regression in the hardware requirements. If I had to guess I'd say we'll see at least Unity requirements from here on out.

    PC Requirements will be announced closer to release - since the team are working hard to finalise them.

    Dont expect actual (not advertised) minumum to be low.
    I bet on I5 2500 + 8GB + GTX 780 3GB

    It depends on the level of performance you can accept. In Unity I would put 3GB VRAM too, even through 680 GPU is good enough for this game, 2GB VRAM isnt. There are 4GB 680/770 ofc, but considering price ranges 780 looks like a better choice (or rather looked like, they dont make higher end 7xx anymore).

    Assassin's Creed: Syndicate requirements issue

    Hey! I live in India and I am a fan of Assassin's Creed games. I have to buy a laptop so can anyone suggest a laptop which can run Assassin's Creed Syndicate, not too expensive.
    Thanks in advance.
