Far Cry 6 releases next month and if you’re buying the game on PC you will need a powerhouse PC to run the game at its best. Ubisoft has announced the Far Cry 6 PC System Requirements and in order to run the game at 4K 30FPS (not even at 60FPS), users will require an RTX 3080 GPU.
Far Cry 6 is a good-looking game. We recently had hands-on time with it and the game world is incredible. The demo we played didn’t even have raytracing enabled so we can only imagine how much sexier it would be with that toggle on. You can watch our hands-on preview below or read it here.

Users who want to play Far Cry 6 on PC can do so with older hardware. Ubisoft says that the minimum requirement for Far Cry 6 at 30FPS 1080p without raytracing needs an AMD RX 460 or GTX 960. However, as you increase the resolution and frame rate, the game gets more demanding.
If anything, the current mainstream GPUs on the market can’t even handle running Far Cry 6 at 4k 60FPS with raytracing. Clearly, we need new GPUs now.
Far Cry 6 on PC also boasts some enhanced features including:
- Uncapped framerate
- In-depth customization options
- Hybrid input and extended control customization
- Multi-monitor and widescreen support
- In-game benchmark for performance analysis
- DirectX Raytracing (DXR)
- AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution Support
