As you can see, you don’t necessarily need the newest supercharged computer system to play Crackdown 3 at high settings. Instead of needing the latest Nvidia RTX 2000 series video card, players get by with a 970 card, which came out around 2014, while a 1060 card provides slightly better performance. Plus, many recent computer systems come with at least 8 GB of memory as standard. So, there’s probably no need to upgrade for Crackdown 3 if you have an older PC.
In Crackdown 3, an attack turns off power around the world. The attack is traced back to a mysterious agency called Terra Nova. Playing as superpowered agents, you must find a way to take Terra Nova apart for good.
Crackdown 3 releases on February 15 for Xbox One and Windows PC. Xbox Games Pass subscribers can pre-load the game now.
