Far Cry 5 System Requirements List GTX 1080 SLI for 4K 60FPS
Ron Perillo / 7 years ago
Ubisoft has released the full system requirements list for their upcoming Far Cry 5 game. The latest installment of the Far Cry series still uses the latest in-house Dunia engine and features a lot of wide open-world spaces to explore. Set in rural Montana, players are facing off against a doomsday cult that is armed to the teeth. Naturally, you fight fire with fire, so you have access to a lot of ammunition as well. Thankfully, you can enlist the help of fellow second amendment lovers, as well as bears, mountain lions and other animals. To fully experience the game at 1920 x 1080 at 30fps and even 60fps, it does not require much. However, it is a completely different story if you want to push 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) at 60fps.
