Assassin’s Creed: Origins PC Performance Review

Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Franchise has had a mixed history, especially on PC, where DRM controversies marred the otherwise well-received Assassin’s Creed II, performance and stability issues that left many PC users unsatisfied with Unity and the restricted graphical options menu on the original Assassin’s Creed’s PC version when using high resolutions (1080p+).  

After the release of Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate, Ubisoft placed the series on a two-year hiatus. bringing the series back to the drawing board to create a different Assassin’s Creed experience, resulting in the release of Assassin’s Creed: Origins. While this new game is undoubtedly Assassin’s Creed, Origins reworks a lot of the game’s key systems, like combat, character/item upgrades and even the game’s single-player mission structure. 

The big question that remains is how well does this game perform on PC, which is something that we want to answer today with in-depth CPU and GPU performance testing. To say the least, this game can be extremely demanding.  

  

 

Drivers

As always, we will be using the most recent drivers from AMD and Nvidia at the time of release. This means that we will be testing this game with AMD’s Radeon Software Crimson ReLive 17.10.3 Driver and Nvidia’s Geforce 388.10 driver. Both of these drivers are said to contain optimisations for Assassin’s Creed: Origins.
