Ubisoft has announced the minimum requirements and recommended configurations to play Far Cry 2 on the PC. The good news is that most PCs that have been playing modern games for the last two or three years should be able to cope with the open-world FPS.

“It has always been our intention to make Far Cry 2 as accessible to everyone as possible, and we have worked continuously to optimize Far Cry 2 to achieve this goal,” said Dominic Guay, Lead Technical Director.

Far Cry 2 is scheduled for release this Autumn.
