Prince of Persia: Engine and system requirements
The new Prince of Persia title is based, like Assassin's creed, on the Anvil Engine, but renounces a realistic visualization in favor for an so called Illustrated Art Style (some kind of Cel-Shading or moving artwork)

Decisive for a smooth gaming experience is a (dual-core) processor in the first place. But you should at least have a middle-class graphics card for higher resolutions and/or FSAA. The official minimal system requirements can be found in the Ubisoft Forum.

Minimal System requirements
• Operating system: Windows XP or Windows Vista
• Processor: Intel Pentium D 2.6 GHz / AMD Athlon X2 3800+ (Recommended: C2D 2.2 GHz / X2 4400+)
• RAM: 1 GiByte (XP) / 2 GiByte (Vista)
• Hard drive space: 8 GiByte
• Graphics card: Shader Model 3 with 256 MiByte (Geforce 6800 or better / Radeon X1600 or better)

Prince of Persia: The graphics options
Prince of Persia is started via a game launcher - adjustments in the graphics options are possible outside the game only. As usual for console ports there are only a few options available at all:

• Screen Resolution
• Antialiasing
• Graphics Quality
• High resolution textures

In our version forcing AF in the display driver worked without problems.

All screenshots were taken at a resolution of 2,560 x 1,200 with a Geforce GTX 280. They are displayed at 1,280 x 800. On the following pages you can take a look at our comparative pictures and a benchmark.
