Can I Run Assassin's Creed Valhalla?
Ubisoft Montreal released Assassin's Creed Valhalla in 2022. It is an action adventure game, published by Ubisoft. The game supports a single player campaign. 14 languages are covered by the store listing. Its Steam review count passes 40 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Completionists have 92 achievements to work through. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. Steam gates it behind an age check at 17.

Setting and environment
The game is set in a mythological world. Play is structured around one continuous open world. Continuous worlds put sustained pressure on memory and storage, and Assassin's Creed Valhalla can never assume the player will stop and let it load. It is played from a third person view. There are 5 official screenshots to judge the look from.
Why Assassin's Creed Valhalla is demanding
Very little is asked of the GPU by Assassin's Creed Valhalla. AMD R9 380 /NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 scores low against the RTX 3060, putting Assassin's Creed Valhalla within reach of laptop and integrated graphics. Assassin's Creed Valhalla calls for DirectX 12, which rules out otherwise capable hardware that never got the feature level. Assassin's Creed Valhalla needs only 8 GB of RAM. Assassin's Creed Valhalla needs 64 bit Windows. Assassin's Creed Valhalla wants about 160 GB of disk space, which is a real consideration on a smaller drive.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Assassin's Creed Valhalla?
Free up space before installing Assassin's Creed Valhalla: it needs roughly 160 GB. Once it's on disk the rest is unremarkable, AMD R9 380 /NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 and 8 GB of RAM meet the minimum, so most current PCs handle the compute side.
Bottleneck: GPU
Large install. Assassin's Creed Valhalla needs about 160 GB of free storage.
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 3.04x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 1.71x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.76x |
A projection, not a measurement. We scale the published GPU requirement by pixel count, since 1440p draws 1.78 times the pixels of 1080p and 4K draws 4 times as many, then compare against RTX 3060 / Ryzen 5 build. The publisher did not state a target resolution, so 1080p is assumed as the baseline. We hold no frame rate data, so no FPS figure is claimed. Headroom above 1 means the reference machine has room to spare at that resolution.
