Summary
In an unusual, but welcome surprise, on Monday,Ubisoft revealed that Assassin’s Creed Syndicate would be receiving a 60fps patchforPlayStation 5andXbox Series X/Sconsoles as soon as tomorrow.The 2015 titlewill now run at 4K, 60fps on PS5 andPS5 Pro, as well as 1080p, 60fps. Meanwhile, theSeries Xwill also be at 4K, 60fps, whileSeries Swill be at 1080p, 60fps,according to Ubisoft’s release.
Without anAssassin’s Creedtitle in 2024,due to Shadows being delayed into 2025, a return to London doesn’t sound all that bad. However, what fans are really clamoring for is a return to Paris with anAssassin’s Creed Unitypatch.
Unity Is Finally Getting Its Flowers
“Where’s Unity?“one user matter-of-factly saidina Reddit thread dedicated to news of the upcoming patch. Technically speaking, Unity does run at 60fps on Xbox via the built-in fps boost. However, while the frame rate is boosted, the resolution is still stuck at 900p.
“It’s a shame they didn’t do this for Unity, I’d gladly pop that one in again for a run at 60fps,” another user opined.
For one reason or another, Unity has seen its popularity massively increase, particularly in the last several months.During the 2024 Paris Olympics, Unity’s Arno made an appearance during the Opening Ceremony as an honorary torchbearer.
That moment led to the game receiving a well-deserved boost in player count.What was once a game stuck in the hundreds quickly jumped into the thousands, per SteamDB charts. “Ubisoft! give me Unity and Ezio collection 60fps on PS5 and my life is yours! kratos.jpeg,“a Redditor exclaimed, invokingone of gaming’s best memes around.
Hopefully, Ubisoft listens to these rabid fans and makes a current-generation patch for Unity a thing. Until then, though, Syndicate is quite the delight,particularly its Jack the Ripper DLC.
