MicroStar International has announced that for a limited time it will bundle Assassin’s Creed Chronicles with select AMD Radeon R9 and R7-based graphics adapters. Since the AC Chronicles use 2.5D graphics, they should run perfectly on systems powered by such graphics boards.
MSI will bundle the Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China and the Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India with its R9 380 Gaming 4GB, R9 380 Gaming 2GB, R7 370 Gaming 4GB and R7 380 Gaming 2GB graphics adapters. The graphics cards are based on the “Tonga” graphics processor (1792 stream processors, 112 texture units, 32 raster operations pipelines) and the “Pitctain” graphics processor (1024 SPs, 64 TUs, 32 ROPs).
The promotion campaign will ran from the 21st of September to the 31st of October, 2015. Game code expires on the 31st of July, 2016.
The Assassin’s Creed Chronicles games feature new protagonists and a design that is new to the franchise, a 2.5D world inspired by traditional brush paintings, according to Wikipedia. Since the games use 2.5D graphics, they do not need a lot of GPU horsepower. As a result, the aforementioned MSI’s graphics cards should be perfect for them.

KitGuru Says: Free games are always welcome by the end-user. If you are in the market for an affordable graphics adapter, you should definitely consider MSI’s offering.
“R7 380” – R9 380, Tonga is now called Antigua and Pitcairn, Trinidad. Not sure about the sentence as a whole though, since all the GPUs are 2GB or 4GB configured anyway. “The promotion will ran”, now I’m getting more confused and think I’ll stop reading. Am I even making sense anymore?
