Ubisoft has revealed its various recommendations when it comes to PC hardware needed to run (https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/avatar/frontiers-of-pandora) Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. They?re not especially surprising.
You?ll need a reasonably recent setup to actually get Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. The minimum GPU is AMD RX 5700 or Nvidia Geforce 1070. The minimum required VRAM is 8GB. You?ll also need 90GB of free space on your hard drive and at least 18GB of RAM.
However, if you want to run everything at max and in 4K, you?ll need the latest generation of cards. This means at least an AMD RX 7900 XTX 24GB or an Nvidia RTX 4080 16GB. Even with that hardware, you?re still going to need to use AMD FSR2 at balanced settings to make up the extra frames. It also supports FSR3 and DLSS.

The beefy Ultra specs are likely due to the game?s usage of ?Raytraced global illumination, reflections & shadows.? It?s funny how the appreciable growth in graphical fidelity has decelerated significantly in the past couple of decades. If I were cynical, I?d think that a computational-heavy technique such as raytracing is so heavily pushed by tech companies as a way of ensuring that hardware still becomes obsolete at a consistent pace. I am cynical, so I do think that. But that's not Ubisoft's problem. They just want the bullet point. Ubisoft has other problems (https://www.destructoid.com/former-ubisoft-execs-arrested-following-sexual-harassment-investigation/).
However, if you are down for playing Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, your computer can have a bit of dust on it if you are okay with the lower settings. However, if you want to enjoy all the splendor that Ubisoft can bring to Pandora, you?ll need something with a little more beef.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will be released on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 on December 7, 2023.
