Skull and Bones system requirements

What are the Skull and Bones system requirements? After years of development trouble, Skull and Bones is finally out, but the reception hasn't been great considering how long we waited to play it. The good news, however, is that it's a fairly easy game to run on PC.

Thankfully, Skull and Bones runs on fairly low hardware, but the in-game performance can sometimes not be representative of this due to some poor optimization that we expect to be fixed in patches.

Here are the Skull and Bones system requirements:

To meet Skull and Bones minimum requirements, you'll want to acquire – by whatever means necessary – an Nvidia GTX 1060 GPU. In addition, you'll need a rig with at least 8GB RAM installed and a U on par with an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 or Intel Core i7 4790. It's important to note that a system of that standard will net you just 30fps at 1080p on a low preset.

To meet the Skull and Bones recommended specs, you'll need to deck out your PC with some slightly newer hardware. In of GPU, Ubisoft specifies that an AMD RX 5700 XT or Nvidia RTX 2070 will suffice for 60 fps at 1080p on a high preset. That's as long as you're also set up with 16GB RAM and an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 or Intel Core i7 8700K U.

You'll need plenty of space below deck to fill up with swag, so make sure you've got 65GB of storage on an SSD to meet Skull and Bones size requirements. It's not quite as high as some other recent releases but still represents a hefty chunk of solid-state storage space, so check out our guide to the best SSD if you need to upgrade.
