Ubisoft Details Third Assassin’s Creed Unity Patch

Since a rocky launch of Ubisoft’s newest Assassin’s Creed game last week, a third patch is already being worked on for Unity.

Assassin’s Creed Unity has only been out for just about a week now, but the game has already undergone some significant changes. With such a rocky release and less than impressive review scores, the team at Ubisoft has been working hard to fix the experience as a whole. Now they are already planning the launch of a third patch for the title.

The second patch has already been launched on the PlayStation 4 and PC, with it waiting in the wings on the Xbox One, but a third update is already being worked on for the game.

With so many issues revolving around frame rate and technical issues with Assassin’s Creed Unity, the team at Ubisoft continues to try and iron out the kinks. They have started to detail the third patch launching for the game:

"The list of specific fixes is not yet final, but the categories that we’re focusing on include:"
"Gameplay: this includes bugs like Arno getting stuck on certain areas of the map (including a few more hay carts), problems with getting into/out of cover, character animation bugs, and general camera problems"
"AI & Crowd: in this category are problems with NPC animations, crowd events, and crowd stations, NPC navigation issues, as well as bugs related to NPCs detecting Arno’s activities in various situations"
"Matchmaking & Connectivity: this covers a number of issues related to co-op play, including bugs with joining games in-progress and problems that happen during host migration"
"Menus & HUD: fixes in this category will address missing details in certain menus, problems with some of the mission objective and co-op update pop-ups, localization inconsistencies, as well as some of the issues with menus and pop-ups overlapping each other"
"General Stability: this includes fixes for a number of crash situations we’ve identified in both campaign and co-op modes."

Considering how poorly the game was received, expect Ubisoft to continue to work on Assassin’s Creed Unity and offer up patches until the experience is more complete. Unfortunately this launch fiasco is becoming more the norm instead of being an outlier.
