Ubisoft brings nostalgia in the form of the latest Assassin’s Creed game, Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Leveraging ray tracing as well as modern rendering techniques, the developers bring the landscape of feudal Japan to life. As you may expect, such a visually rich experience doesn’t come without a cost. You need good enough specifications to truly enjoy what this game has to offer.

If you own an ASUS ROG Ally, steadily hitting the 40 FPS mark at full HD means that you need to carefully manage the settings. In this post, we will go over the best settings for the ROG Ally in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Let’s get started.

Note: The following settings are tailored to boost performance at a 1920×1080 resolution. They won’t be as efficient for higher resolutions.

Keep in mind that the higher you set them, the lower your performance will be.
