It appears that Ubisoft wants to leverage the game’s experience to a whole better perspective. Therefore Assassin’s Creed Origins will receive a new patch, 1.2.0, which aims to improve the game’s health overall. Assassin’s Creed 1.2.0 will bring various new features, that shall amaze players’ perspective as a whole.
We’re expecting a full disclosure on new mistakes as Ubisoft will finally deal with them once and for all. After recent known issues, patch 1.2.0 will most likely deal with all of them. The game’s community is satisfied regarding the changes, but according to some players, it’s a too little too late.
However, as a gaming portal, our job is to transfer the world’s news to our readers, so they will know what Ubisoft is going to change in Assassin’s Creed Origins.
First and foremost, let’s not forget the upcoming “The Hidden Ones” expansion. Patch 1.2.0 adds support for it, together with a new “Incoming Threat” Quest. However, putting all the fancy features aside, it appears that Ubisoft has finally made a dream come true to all AC Origins players with one less important but yet useful change.
Allowing players to toggle the visibility of inventory items on the Gear menu appears to be one of the best updates the game has ever received, thus making it easier for players to navigate through their inventory. The patch is scheduled to release on January 16, so praise and proud for the greatness is yet to come.
