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

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

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

Positive player feedback followed the patch releases, with gamers expressing relief and gratitude for the fix. The problem's origin in the Windows update, rather than Ubisoft's game development, contributed to this positive reception. Despite this, recent game reviews remain "Mixed."

There's optimism that Assassin's Creed Shadows, recently delayed until March 20th to allow for quality improvements, will avoid similar compatibility problems. The game's launch is considered crucial for the company's future.
