Recent Windows 11 Update Disrupts Assassin's Creed Gameplay; Patches Released
A recent Windows 11 update (24H2) introduced compatibility issues for several Assassin's Creed titles. Fortunately, Ubisoft has swiftly addressed the problem for Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Valhalla with dedicated patches. These updates, available via Steam, resolve launch and functionality problems reported by players after installing the Windows update. Note that the Origins patch requires 230 MB of storage space, while the Valhalla patch needs 500 MB.
However, the issue persists for some Ubisoft games, notably Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Players experiencing difficulties with this title are advised to delay updating to Windows 11 24H2 until a dedicated patch becomes available. While previous Ubisoft hotfixes mitigated problems for Star Wars: Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, residual performance issues may remain.
The root cause of the incompatibility remains unclear. Although the patches address the immediate concerns for Origins and Valhalla, the situation highlights a potential oversight in Microsoft's testing process. Reports of game malfunctions surfaced five months prior to the official 24H2 rollout, suggesting the problem could have been addressed earlier. This is particularly concerning given Microsoft's push for Windows 10 users to upgrade to Windows 11. Despite this incident, the majority of games appear unaffected by the 24H2 update.
