Ubisoft has revealed system requirements for The Division 2, along with a video breaking down the game’s PC-specific features. Tech director Calle Lejdfors says this verion “is not a port. It’s not a special branch. It’s developed along with every other version of the game.” That’s the sort of reassuring platitude we’ve gotten used to hearing about PC development of AAA games, but hey – it’s nice to hear.
More concretely, we’ve got confirmation that The Division 2 will support most of the PC features you could ask for. That includes uncapped frame rates and resolutions, including support for multiscreen and ultrawide monitor setups. You’ve also got HDR support, custom HUD and UI options, and proper PC text chat.
It’s also got scalability. Ubisoft’s system requirements detail minimum and recommended specs, sure, but there are no fewer than four different configurations showing just how far The Division 2 can go. Naturally, you’ll need some serious hardware to manage a 4K 60fps, but if you’re looking to get by on lower resolutions and performance targets the game should scale nicely with last gen hardware.
