Ubisoft has delayed the release of the major Assassin’s Creed Unity Patch 4.
The major patch for the latest Assasin’s Creed game has been delayed because Ubisoft has released there is more work to be done before it can be successfully issued to gamers.
That includes what Ubisoft is calling a need to “refurbish the Paris map”, which is causing concern to gamers.
“As stated last week, we’d expected to release the patch today (and we know that many are anticipating its release), but we are choosing to hold off until we can give you the improvements we’ve promised,” explained Ubisoft in a blog post.
The patch was supposed to be released yesterday, December 15, but there’s no word as to whether it will be released before the end of the week now.
“We are committed to delivering major performance improvements, which requires that we refurbish the Paris map and that will take a few more days to hit the high level of quality our players deserve.”
There have been three major patches released for Assassin’s Creed Unity since its launch in November. Ubisoft has faced major criticism over the game’s release quality, which included framerate issues, multiplayer problems and graphical malfunctions.
Ubisoft has since made the Asssassin’s Creed Unity Dead Kings DLC free to anyone who purchased the game at launch.
For those who purchased the now discontinued Unity Season Pass, Ubisoft is launching a dedicated website for them to download a free Ubisoft game as compensation.
The free games on offer are:
- The Crew
- Far Cry 4
- Watch Dogs
- Assassin’s Creed Black Flag
- Rayman Legends
- Just Dance 2015
Players will be able to redeem their free titles this week.
