Assassin\'s Creed Windows 11 Issues Have Been Fixed

Following a recent Windows 11 update (24H2), several Assassin's Creed titles encountered launch and performance problems. Ubisoft has swiftly addressed this issue for Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Valhalla, releasing patches to resolve the incompatibility. These updates are automatically applied via Steam, requiring approximately 230 MB and 500 MB of free space, respectively.

However, some Ubisoft games, notably Assassin's Creed Odyssey, remain affected by the Windows update. While previous patches mitigated similar issues for titles like Star Wars: Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, players experiencing problems with Odyssey should postpone updating to Windows 11 24H2 until a dedicated fix is available.

The root cause of the incompatibility between the Windows 11 24H2 update and certain Ubisoft games remains unclear. Although the patches for Origins and Valhalla are welcome, the persistence of problems in other games highlights a need for more thorough testing before major Windows releases, especially given Microsoft's encouragement for Windows 10 users to upgrade. The situation underscores the potential for unforeseen conflicts between system updates and game software.
