We're back with another update on Ubisoft. While the company continues to navigate recent challenges, there's some positive news. A long-standing compatibility issue has finally been resolved.
Ubisoft has successfully addressed compatibility problems between several Assassin's Creed titles and the Windows 11 24H2 update. This update, released in Fall 2024, caused games like Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Valhalla, among others, to malfunction on the new operating system. The solution arrived via newly released patches, announced on the Steam pages for Origins and Valhalla.
Player response to the patches has been overwhelmingly positive. Comments on the patch notes express relief and gratitude, acknowledging that this particular issue stemmed from Windows, not Ubisoft's development. While the overall Steam reviews for both games remain "Mixed," this fix is a significant step forward.
There's also optimism surrounding Assassin's Creed Shadows. Recently delayed until March 20th to allow for further quality improvements, its launch is considered crucial for Ubisoft's future.
