Method: a game's demand tier maps to a “GPU index needed for ~60 FPS at 1080p”; each GPU's relative index produces an estimate via a diminishing-returns curve, then scaled for resolution. Source: TechPowerUp GPU database (relative performance), 2026-08-29.

About Assassin's Creed Unity
The game takes place in Paris, during the Great French Revolution, from the capture of the Bastille in 1789 to the Thermidorian coup. Behind all action, there is an intrigue connected with the change of the Great Master of the Order of Templars. The game has a new assassin, Arno Victor Dorian. The setting provides an abundance of locations - from Versailles to the Parisian multi-level catacombs. The mission system is entirely different from the previous games of the series. In this game, there is a cooperative mode for a maximum of 4 people. Parkour now allows you to climb walls without any troubles at all. A system of shelters and the ability to manipulate the crowd are added. The player has an influence on the character improvement scenario. An interesting detail - before the murder of the primary victim, her whole life flashes before the eyes of the assassin.

How the Assassin's Creed Unity optimization card & FPS estimate are computed
Each game is scored on a 0–9 demand tier from its published PC requirements (and a year/genre fallback when requirements are absent). The FPS estimate compares your selected GPU's relative-performance index against the tier's required index using a diminishing-returns curve, then scales for resolution. The settings card maps the demand tier and your hardware to a starting preset, an FPS band and an upscaler recommendation. All outputs are planning guides — verify in-game with the built-in benchmark when available.
