Ubisoft revealed the official system requirements for For Honor ahead of its release on February 14th. The system specs aren’t that bad and seem reminiscent of something from four years ago.
The system requirements for the PC version of the game were made available over on the official UbiBlog. You can check out the minimum and recommended specs below.

I like that recommended specs now give an ideal specification sheet for certain resolutions and frame-rates. For 1080p at 60fps you’ll only need a GTX 680 with 8GB of RAM. For a 2017 game that’s not bad at all. They also noted that they also support a number of gamepads and controllers on PC as well, including any Xbox controller, the Logitech Chillstream, the OUYA controller (who even has one of those? Like really?) the DualShock 3 and the Steam Controller.
In addition to rolling out the system specs Ubisoft also offered gamers a trailer to help them prep for the closed beta test. You can check that out below.
The persistent territory control could give the game some legs to stand on as far as long-term viability is concerned. That’s probably going to be their bread and butter assuming they can milk the multiplayer with microtransactions.
