Assassin’s Creed Unity’s long-awaited Patch 4 is now live on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, publisher Ubisoft has confirmed.
Patch 4 was originally scheduled for release on both consoles yesterday, but Ubisoft decided to delay the update in order to deliver “major performance improvements” to Unity.
According to a post on the Assassin’s Creed website, the latest update is a 6.7GB download for Unity owners, with The Live Update Team explaining the size of Patch 4 is due to the developers “replacing and updating portions of the Paris city map.”
A community manager, Andrien Gbinigie, has announced on the Ubisoft forums that Patch 4 will be coming to PC later this week, and he also outlined the improvements that the latest update brings to Unity:
