Ubisoft has announced that a new patch for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will be released tomorrow. Update 1.3.0 will be 6GB in size for the PC and will add in-game support for Torments of Hades as well as for the upcoming Lost Tales of Greece.

Moreover, this upadte will address an issue causing enemy fire attack damage to be too high, will up Ikaros’s attack damage, will reduce the weekly contract objectives to make them simpler and faster to complete, and will forbit enemy archers from having the ability to apply players Critical Chance and Critical Damage stats engravings to themselves.

As always, this patch will also fix a number of bugs and issues. For instance, it will address an issue in New Game+ that caused all map progress to be carried over unintentionally, several issues preventing players from completing Ainigmata Ostraka, an issue causing players to spawn under the map when traveling to Lokris Overwatch viewpoint and an issue preventing players from confirming kill on the Swordfish & Brison.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey patch 1.3.0 also comes with some PC-specific fixes. For example, it addresses an issue preventing players from reassigning key bindings when using M&K, will force native resolution values to remain intact when players switch to window modes without applying any settings, will force Anti-Aliasing to be set to the appropriate value when Adaptive Quality is set to ON, and will increase scrolling speed for filters in Photo Mode.

UPLAY and Steam will download this update once it becomes available tomorrow, and you can find its complete changelog below.
