Taking a sharp turn away from the lush island jungles of the top-rated Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4 is set in Kyrat, an untamed region currently ruled by a despotic self-appointed king. But don't be lulled into a false sense of security by the achingly beautiful views, Kyrat is a wild land full of perils. Once again, players will be able to craft their own stories as they travel through this exotic open world teeming with wildlife - using their wits along with an assortment of powerful weapons and diverse vehicles.

If this game can run on the xbox 360 and ps3. The minimum req should not be higher than far cry 3 by any significant margin, DONT WORRY ABOUT UNITY

Unity is next gen only, therefore lowest settings on pc are equal to ps4/xbone besides resolution. While a 680 is bs i doubt anything under gtx 660 will run

Far cry 4s lowest settings should be equal to xbox 360/ ps3 settings besides resolution. So don't expect the slap in the face that unity was for req

But you see, that's not the point of next-gen. Any developer can make a poorly coded game, slap on some insane requirements and call it "the future". That's not what we're looking for though, as gamers. We need to see some actual improvements that justify those requirements, not some lame excuse for an improved engine like Watch Doge.

Probably high or high-ultra, depending on the quality of the optimization. You'll want to get some more RAM soon though…

Yes, on low, but only if the game doesn't require DX 11 to run and if the requirements don't change much.

It doesn't. The devs just made a mistake, I suppose. The minimum GPU requirements include the 8600 GT as well as the HD 3870, both of which are DX 10 GPUs.

Need to verify your gpu, that can be done on your profile when making your rig, afterwards get it confirmed by a admin. In this case you might of not put a gpu because you use maybe Intel graphic but if it were to be that low be great with 30 fps just go back and edit your rig and put your Intel graphics to the specific one that corresponds to this CPU.
