Ubisoft has extended its strategic partnership with Nvidia to bring “amazing PC gaming experiences to life” with the upcoming releases of Assassin’s Creed Unity, Far Cry 4, The Crew and Tom Clancy’s The Division.

Nvidia’s GameWorks Team is said to be working closely with Ubisoft’s development studios to help create game worlds that deliver unprecedented realism and immersion. Technologies such as TXAA antialiasing, soft shadows, HBAO+, advanced DX11 tessellation, and NVIDIA PhysX technology will be utilised.

“Working with NVIDIA has enabled us to bring an enhanced gameplay experience to our PC players,” said Geoffroy Sardin, senior vice president of sales and marketing, Ubisoft. “We look forward to continuing our partnership with NVIDIA on our biggest upcoming titles.”

Of course, Ubisoft has previously worked with Nvidia to enhance Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Blacklist, Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag and Watch Dogs. However, Watch Dogs has come under a great deal of criticism by gamers for offering poor performance even on high-end PC systems.

Let’s hope future PC releases from Ubisoft learn from the mistakes made with Watch Dogs.
