Summary
- Recent Windows 11 updates caused launch issues for several Assassin's Creed games.
- Patches for Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Valhalla have been released, resolving the problem for those titles. Assassin's Creed Odyssey may still experience issues.
Gamers experiencing problems with Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Valhalla following a Windows 11 update can rejoice! Ubisoft has released patches addressing the compatibility issues introduced by the Windows 11 24H2 update. This update, while bringing features like Wi-Fi 7 support and AI Copilot+, unfortunately caused some games, including several Assassin's Creed titles, to malfunction.
These patches are automatically applied via Steam, restoring functionality to Origins and Valhalla. Players should ensure they have sufficient storage space; the Origins patch requires 230 MB, while the Valhalla patch needs 500 MB.
Windows Update 24H2 Still Affecting Some Ubisoft Games
The root cause of the incompatibility remains unclear. While the fixes for Origins and Valhalla are welcome, some Ubisoft games, notably Assassin's Creed Odyssey, continue to experience problems, ranging from unresponsiveness to complete failure to launch. While previous hotfixes addressed significant issues in Star Wars: Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, some performance problems may persist. Players of Assassin's Creed Odyssey are advised to delay updating to Windows 11 24H2 until a dedicated patch is available.
This incident highlights a concerning oversight. Reports of game incompatibility surfaced five months prior to the official release of the Windows 11 24H2 update, yet the issue wasn't fully resolved before the rollout. This is especially problematic given Microsoft's encouragement for Windows 10 users to upgrade to Windows 11. Fortunately, the majority of games appear unaffected.
