Ubisoft has revealed the minimum PC specifications that your machine will require if you wish to play Assassin’s Creed III in November.

The only major change to the usual specs for an Assassin’s Creed game is the removal of support for Windows XP, so for the 10 people still using it, it may be time for an upgrade. Assassin’s Creed III is due out November 20 on PC. You can check out the specs below:

Supported OS: Windows Vista (SP2) / Windows 7 (SP1) / Windows 8
Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core2 Duo E6700 or 3.00 GHz AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ or better

Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c-compliant (5.1 surround sound recommended)
