Ubisoft finally patched incompatibility of AC Origins and Valhalla with Windows 11

Ubisoft provides an update on their recent struggles and a positive resolution. While upper management continues to navigate challenges, a significant issue has been resolved.

Ubisoft has successfully addressed compatibility problems between several Assassin's Creed titles (including Origins and Valhalla) and the Windows 11 24H2 update. These issues, present since at least Fall 2024, rendered the games unplayable for many users. The solution involved newly released patches, announced on the Steam pages for the affected games.

Positive gamer feedback followed the patch releases, with players expressing relief and gratitude for the fix. The acknowledgment that the problem originated with Windows, not Ubisoft, contributed to the generally positive reception. Despite this, recent reviews for both Origins and Valhalla remain "Mixed."

There's cautious optimism regarding Assassin's Creed Shadows, recently delayed until March 20th. Ubisoft aims to improve the game's quality before release, recognizing its importance to the company's future.
