Far Cry New Dawn is an action-adventure first-person shooter developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. The game is a spin-off of the Far Cry series and a narrative sequel to Far Cry 5. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on February 15, 2019. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Dunia 2. We test using the Ultra preset, with the HD Textures pack, DX11 API.

Far Cry New Dawn paints a different picture, but that's because this game is bottleneck city – even at 1440p we are CPU-limited with the RTX 3080, with this GPU coming in just 7% faster than the 2080 Ti, quite a lot less than the other games we've tested so far.

Even at 4K, the margins aren't as large as we have seen, or will see, from the other games on test, with the 3080 beating out the 2080 by 55%. Considering that's the smallest gen-on-gen increase of all the games we tested, I think that tells us a lot about the performance of this card…
