Assassin’s Creed Origins has become the subject of a wave of negative reviews on Steam. The PC release has faced criticisms over the fact that the latest major update for Windows 11, 24H2, makes the game unplayable for some. Steam players have also reported facing severe technical issues like freezing and crashing.
Ubisoft titles have been uniquely affected by Windows 11 24H2, with even Microsoft acknowledging the issue and stopping the update from being released for Windows 11 users. Affected Ubisoft titles include Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin’s Creed Origins, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.
The 24H2 update for Windows 11 was originally rolled out back in November, with many other titles getting significant performance upgrades thanks to the update working particularly well with some of AMD’s processors. Ubisoft titles, however, seem to be facing compatibility issues with the update.
At the time of writing, the overall review aggregate for Assassin’s Creed Origins on Steam sits at “Very Positive”, with the recent reviews aggregate having fallen down to “Mixed”.
