Welcome back to another edition of our recurring series, “How is Ubisoft Today?” While the company’s leadership continues navigating through what can only be described as a prolonged crisis, there's finally some good news—Ubisoft has resolved one of the more frustrating technical issues affecting players.
The long-standing compatibility problems between several *Assassin’s Creed* titles and the Windows 11 24H2 update have finally been addressed. For months, users had been experiencing crashes and performance issues with games like *Assassin’s Creed Origins*, *Assassin’s Creed Valhalla*, and others after updating to the latest version of Windows 11. Now, thanks to newly released patches, these issues appear to be fully resolved. The updates were officially announced via the Steam store pages for both *Origins* and *Valhalla*.
Gamers have taken notice—and for once, the comments section isn't filled with complaints about Ubisoft. Instead, many are expressing gratitude for the fix, acknowledging that this particular issue stemmed from Microsoft’s OS update rather than Ubisoft’s code. That said, despite the positive reception around this patch, recent user reviews for both titles remain categorized as “Mixed.”
There’s also cautious optimism that *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* won’t encounter similar compatibility hurdles. Its release date was recently pushed back to March 20, giving the development team additional time to polish the game. With so much riding on its success, ensuring a smooth launch free of technical setbacks will be crucial—not just for the franchise, but potentially for the future of the company itself.
