The much awaited Assassin’s Creed Unity Patch 4 was released yesterday after having been delayed for one day. This patch is a 6.7GB download because it brings an updated Paris map, but since the download was supposed to replace the parts that have been changed, the download size was kept under 7GB. Looks like Assassin’s Creed Unity just can’t catch a break. A glitch has surfaced on Xbox One which requires gamers to redownload the entire 40GB ACU game when they install this patch.
Assassin’s Creed Unity has seen more than its fair share of problems ever since it was launched. There were issues with frame rate drops, stability, online features and much more all of which were addressed in multiple patches by Ubisoft. The latest patch was supposed to fix the majority of these issues, and it does to an extent, but on the Xbox One its a whole new ordeal.
Ubisoft writes that instead of the parts affected by this patch being replaced, “an issue with the patch downloading process” is actually replacing the entire title on Xbox One. This means having to download 40GB worth of content which is obviously going to take some time.
Ubisoft apologizes for the issue and says that it doesn’t have an ETA on when this will be resolved. Microsoft and Ubisoft are working together to find a solution that reduces download to the intended size.
