Watch dogs 2 with directx 12 support and optimized for amd

The first Watch Dogs was always in the eye of controversy when it was launched on the market in 2014 and even earlier because of its graphics, if there was a "downgrade" than if it did not look as good as when it was presented in 2012, etc. Although the criticism from the players and the press were not so positive, the game was a gold mine for Ubisoft and that is why it was recently confirmed that Watch Dogs 2 was in development, now with DirectX 12.

At the moment we can know some more details about Watch Dogs 2, which is going to be one of the first video games to be created under the new API DirectX 12 that Microsoft is promoting .

The arrival of Watch Dogs 2 with DirectX 12 was confirmed by AMD's corporate vice president, Roy Taylor, who also took the opportunity to comment that the Ubisoft video game is going to be especially "optimized" for AMD processors and graphics cards.

It is worth reviewing that DirectX 12 will bring great benefits for video games in the future, such as optimizing the load between CPU and GPU, that is, that the processor will take advantage of 100% as well as the configurations of 8 cores, which are currently largely underutilized in computer video games.

DirectX 12 Watch Dogs 2 will run better on AMD

With the optimization of Watch Dogs 2 for the AMD platform, it is quite possible that the game will run better with the brand's graphics cards and in the 8-core FX processors, which currently pale compared to the 4-core Intel configurations.

For now Watch Dogs 2 would hit stores later this year 2016 for the new generation consoles XBOX One, Playstation 4 and, of course, PC. Hopefully this time Ubisoft does their homework and hands us a "bug free" game.
