Where are the ray tracing specifications?
On August 30, 2024, it’s off into the infinite expanses of space withStar Wars: Outlaws .
While we’ve already been able to let off steam in the open world over the past few days – more on this in the Plus article below – publisher Ubisoft has finally revealed more about the PC system requirements.
One thing the information provided so far has not told us, however.
On theofficial page for Star Wars: Outlawsthere are a total of four different requirements for your PC in order to run the game smoothly in the respective default settings.
Without ray tracing enabled, the system requirements are as follows:
| Minimum | Recommended | High | Ultra | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Graphics preset / resolution | Low / 1080p at 60 FPS | High / 1080p at 60 FPS | High / 1440p at 60 FPS | Ultra / 2160p at 60 FPS |
| Processor | Intel i7-8700K AMD Ryzen 5 3600 |
Intel i5-10400 AMD Ryzen 5 5600X |
Intel i5-11600K AMD Ryzen 7 5800X |
Intel i7-12700K AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D |
| Graphics card | Nvidia GTX 1660 AMD RX 5600 XT Intel Arc A750 |
Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti AMD RX 6700 XT |
Nvidia RTX 4070 AMD RX 6800 XT |
Nvidia RTX 4080 AMD RX 7900 XTX |
| Memory | 16 GByte Dual-Channel | 16 GByte Dual-Channel | 16 GByte Dual-Channel | 16 GByte Dual-Channel |
| Memory space | 65 GByte SSD | 65 GByte SSD | 65 GByte SSD | 65 GByte SSD |
This is where the missing information mentioned at the beginning comes into play:Because in the further course of the website there is no reference to the requirements with activated ray tracing.
Neither is it made clear whether and to what extent upscaling technologies such as DLSS 3.5 or AMD FSR play a role.
In particularNvidiastirred the drum for the upcoming Ubisoft game. According to this, Star Wars: Outlaws will support the following technologies:
- DLSS 3.5 with Ray Reconstruction
- Nvidia Reflex
- RTX Direct Illumination
In view of the feature list, it is all the more surprising why Ubisoft has not clarified the specifications required for this – there is still some time until the release on August 30, 2024.
