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

We're back with another update on Ubisoft. While the company continues to navigate recent challenges, there's some good news: a major compatibility issue has been resolved.

Ubisoft has finally fixed the problems between several Assassin's Creed titles and the Windows 11 24H2 update. Since Fall 2024, games like Assassin's Creed Origins and Assassin's Creed Valhalla, among others, had stopped working correctly on the new OS. The solution arrived via newly released patches, announced on the Steam pages for Origins and Valhalla.

Player reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, with comments expressing relief and gratitude. This time, the issue stemmed from Windows, not Ubisoft's game development, leading to a less critical response from the community. However, it's worth noting that recent reviews for both games remain "Mixed."

There's also cautious optimism regarding Assassin's Creed Shadows. Its release, recently postponed to March 20th, aims to benefit from additional quality improvements. The game's launch is considered crucial for the company's future.
