Looks like Ubisoft is keeping word to their earlier announcements, and respect for that. They released minimum, recommended, and high-performance system requirements for the game, which are a bit stringent alright. Which indicates great graphics. It was also announced that the game will implement a revised Uplay DRM scheme that needs a one-time activation, and doesn't require you to stay logged-in when playing the single-player campaign.

The Far Cry series has always demanded a bit of muscle to run well on PC, though of course the advantage is that it's looked best on PC. Ubisoft today confirmed Far Cry 3's system requirements, so see if your computerator has the grunt to run the latest open-world-y FPS.
