According to the first videos of gameplay of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla shared on YouTube, the performances of the new title Ubisoft would not be stable on PC. In particular, the very powerful NVIDIA GPU just arrived on the market would struggle to maintain the frame rate of 60 frames per second at resolution 4K and Graphic Preset Ultra .

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla badly optimized on PC?

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has an integrated benchmark which, according to initial surveys, would score on average 56 frames per second on a configuration equipped with the above GeForce RTX 3090 and processor Intel Core i9 10900 K . An absolutely acceptable performance, considering that we are talking about a game with a large open world and very detailed graphics. It appears, however, that this performance does not repeat itself out of the benchmark in the actual game.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a cross-gen game, on paper optimized to run at 60 fps in 4K on Xbox Series X and on PS5 . But at this point the question that the community of players is asking is the following: “If it doesn’t run at that frame rate on PC much more expensive and performing as it can can you do it on console? “. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will be available on all formats starting tomorrow , when this question can be answered.

Of course the main difference between the next-gen console versions and the PC version concerns the native resolution at which the rendering is performed, which on consoles is lower than 4K and then proceeds to the upscaling. On PC, however, the game is rendered at native 4K with Ultra visual detail. Even for the latter at the moment it is not known whether a compromise has been made on the console.
