Assassin’s Creed Shadows will be officially released on March 20, 2025, on different platforms like PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Mac. Set in feudal Japan, the game is a much-awaited addition to the beloved franchise. It explores several new themes and game styles, providing a rich and visually staggering landscape.

That said, looking at the game's system requirements, we see that it's not too demanding when it comes to CPU and GPU. Thus, gamers who own the RTX 3070 or the RTX 3070 Ti should be able to play the game at relatively high graphics settings. Both GPUs can run the game at 1440p, but to improve performance, we're limiting the standard RTX 3070 to 1080p.

However, we always recommend you tweak the settings a bit to enjoy the game in optimal conditions. In this article, we'll look into the best Assassin’s Creed Shadows settings for the RTX 3070 and 3070 Ti.

With the RTX 3070, you get to run Assassin’s Creed Shadows comfortably at 1080p resolution. The game runs well at 1440p too, but you might experience slightly lower framerates. We've opted for the Medium graphics preset with a few tweaks in some settings. We've also turned on AMD FSR and have set it to Quality mode as it provides great visuals with a slight increase in performance.

We recommend you turn on V-Sync only if you don't own a monitor that features AMD FreeSync or Nvidia G-Sync.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows looks even better on the RTX 3070 Ti, as you get to play it at 1440p resolution. The GPU's higher performance threshold can easily handle complex textures and high detail. We've enabled the Medium preset for most settings here so that you can experience relatively good quality visuals with some Ray Tracing involved.
