Ubisoft has released a new video showing off the PC version of open-world action game Watch Dogs, and it looks good.<\/p>\n
Whether it will look this good on your PC is dependent on how powerful your rig is, though, with the recommended requirements for the game rather high<\/a>.<\/p>\n In the video, below, Watch Dogs lead PC engineer Paul Vlasie discusses how Ubisoft Montreal has worked with Nvidia to add exclusive features to the PC version of the game.<\/p>\n The PC version uses Nvidia’s HBAO Plus (Horizon Based Ambient Occlusion) technology, which adds richer and more realistic shadows around objects that occlude rays of light.<\/p>\n It also uses Nvidia’s TXAA technology, a new cinematic-style anti-aliasing technique that reduces the flickering you sometimes see in motion when playing a game.<\/p>\n The game came under fire earlier in the year for showcasing a story trailer with “downgraded graphics”<\/a> which lead fans to believe the final product would not be as good, aesthetically, as the developers had initially promised.<\/p>\n
