See what kind of hardware you will need for the PC version of Watch Dogs Legion

 

Ubisoft has released as many as six recommended configurations for playing Watch Dogs Legion on PC. Check which one will suit your conditions.

UPDATE (October 12): Ubisoft today updated the requirements for the PC version of the Watch Dogs Legion. The changes aren’t big, but there are. For example, instead of the GTX 960, the game now requires a minimum of GTX 970. For 1440p resolution, it will require the penultimate generation of Core-i7 processors, but there are also cases where the requirements are mitigated. For example, RTX 2070 will no longer be needed for raytracing effects at 1080p resolution - RTX 2060 will suffice.

Another category of requirements has also been added - 144op raytracing, allowing the Watch Dogs Legion now to have seven different configurations depending on graphics settings and resolution. Here are all seven below:
