Ubisoft has released a brand new update for Assassin’s Creed Origins. This patch will update your game’s version to 1.4.0 and adds a reward to the main game for completing the Discovery Tour. In addition, this patch sports a fix for New Game+ and two fixes for the Discovery Tour mode.
As always, this update also comes with some PC-specific fixes. Ubisoft has improved overall stability of the game application, fixed an issue preventing the completion of the ”Seshem.eff Er Aat” tomb after quitting the game with Alt-F4 after having activated the Ancient Mechanisms, fixed low-quality textures for low and very low texture details, flickering artifacts on multi-monitor setup and resolution option when using portrait mode.
This update will be auto-downloaded from Steam or UPLAY the next time you launch their clients. The Steam patch is 700MB and the UPLAY patch is 3.2GB. You can also find below its complete changelog.
