The fourth patch for Assassin’s Creed Unity, which was delayed had finally come out yesterday. This patch was going to be the biggest of the lot and we knew it was going to be a decent size, but we didn’t think it’d be this big! The patch aims to clear up most of the game’s remaining issues and is a whopping 6.7 GB patch. And this is due to the fact that Ubisoft needed to fully replace parts of the Paris map that were facing frame rate issues.
“Part of the team’s effort to enhance frame rate for players involves replacing and updating portions of the Paris city map where we are seeing issues,” Ubisoft said. “This explains the large size of this title update (6.7 GB). However, since a large portion of the patch replaces existing files the net increase to the game’s overall size will be less than 6.7 GB.”
Here is a quick run through of the issues the patch will address–
– Performance and Stability: Frame rate drops, game crashes.
– Gameplay: Navigation, lock picking chests
– Online: Connectivity, matchmaking, companion app
