With Far Cry 6 now just over a month away, it is once again time for PC gamers everywhere to grapple with the age-old question, “Will this hot new game run on my machine?” Ubisoft today revealed the official system requirements. The good news is that most people will find the answer to this question, “Actually yes.”
Although you won’t get the most mind-melting visuals at the bottom of the scale, 30fps at 1080p will be perfectly usable. This is what you get with the minimum specification.
