Ghost Recon: Wildlands PC Specs And Requirements Confirmed

With an open beta on the way in a week's time and the official release not much further off, Ubisoft has announced the minimum and recommended specs for Ghost Recon: Wildlands.

Those hoping to play the game on PC will need at least a Core i5-2400S (2.5 GHz) or FX-4320 (4 GHz) to go along with 6 GB of RAM and a GTX 660 or HD 7870. Based on Ubisoft's description, this is merely to run the game with Low presets at 720p, which is far from ideal.

Likewise, the recommended specs are only for 1080p and High presets; many on PC will be hoping to run the game at higher resolutions, but we don't yet know what kind of hardware that will require. For 1080p/High, Ubisoft suggests an i7-3770 or FX-8350, 8 GB of RAM, and a GTX 970 or R9 290X.

You can see the full list of minimum and recommended specs below. As is now apparently the norm with Ubisoft games on PC, the company has also provided lists of supported video cards and controllers, which you'll also find below.

Those hoping to get a feel for how the game runs will have the opportunity to do so next week. Ubisoft today confirmed the dates for the upcoming open beta, with preloading set to begin on February 21. The game itself is due out on March 7.
