Watch Dogs: Legion developer Ubisoft announced the further delay on the latest co-op mode. Developers said they need to fix existing bugs. This may not look good for the game, as Watch Dogs: Legion has been suffering since the October launch.
“The dev team is committed to fixing these issues and will not stop until everyone can experience the game as intended," wrote by a Ubisoft staff. “As an immediate next step, this week, we are releasing Update 2.20 to PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Stadia. The update will add a manual Save Game button to PC, as well as bring further stability improvements for Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, and PlayStation 4. You can find the full list of patch notes here.”
The online mode got delayed due to bugs in the single-player game mode demanding fixes. Issues, such as game saves not working, lost progress, and general crashes, are getting patched in future updates. Big issues in PlayStation like quitting to menu, game crash, and characters with the “Doomed” trait dies when recruited are being fixed.
Ubisoft also confirmed upcoming improvements and quality of life changes. The improvements include better stability and a graphics tuning option to hit over 60FPS on the highest settings. Ubisoft will collect more details to identify the issues with newer graphics cards. The details will help optimize the game to improve overall performance.
Watch Dogs: Legion is available on multiple platforms, including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/Series S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Google Stadia, and Microsoft Windows. You can also find it on sale right now on the Ubisoft Connect app.
