Windows 11 Update Ubisoft

As a long-time gamer and Windows user, I can’t help but feel like we’re dealing with some sort of modern-day gremlins when it comes to Microsoft’s latest update for Windows 11. The issues with Ubisoft games, particularly Star Wars Outlaws, are a real headache.


Are you convinced that there are mischievous tiny beings like gremlins causing mysterious equipment failures? Perhaps it’s worth considering if such entities could be responsible for glitches in software systems at companies like Microsoft and Ubisoft as well.

Over the course of November, Microsoft has progressively released Version 24H2 for Windows 11, but an unusual issue that initially appeared to only affect a small number of preview users back in the summer has since been identified as a significant problem.

Based on information found on the Microsoft support site, users who have installed the Windows 11 version 24H2 may experience problems with certain Ubisoft video games.

The impacted game titles include Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Assassin’s Creed Origins, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and particularly Star Wars Bounty Hunters.

User reports show that the games hang randomly when loading, during menus, or gameplay sequences.

In more severe cases, this results in a black screen that may require restarting the computer.

Initially, issues were spotted during the test phase for the update this year, and it remains uncertain why Microsoft chose to proceed with the rollout or why Ubisoft didn’t issue a fix before making the update publicly available.

Microsoft Responds, But Is It Effective?

Once it was evident that the challenge was deeply rooted within the system, Microsoft admitted to the predicament and decided to place update 24H2 on a compatibility pause.

In simpler terms, it implies that computers with these specific games won’t get the update until either Microsoft or Ubisoft come up with a permanent fix for the issue where the games freeze.

As an enthusiast, I’m thrilled about the upcoming updates, but it’s crucial to remember that these changes won’t automatically apply to new users who join the community post-update. So, let’s make sure we spread the word and help them enjoy the game with the same benefits we have!

It couldn’t have come at a more inconvenient time, since leading online marketplaces are preparing for Black Friday deals, which will undoubtedly feature the impacted games.

As a gaming enthusiast, it seems I’m the one who’s been hit hardest by the Windows 11 update fiasco. Unfortunately, this mishap might have slowed down the momentum of the rising star in the gaming world, none other than Star Wars Outlaws. However, thanks to the proactive management by our new creative director, Drew Rechner, it’s been business as usual for Star Wars Outlaws, and they’re still soaring high!

In simpler terms, Ubisoft has released an important update for their game, which addresses the initial issues with obligatory stealth mechanics and enhances the unpredictability of combat situations.

Despite Update 24H2 experiencing issues, Microsoft has managed to stay ahead of CrowdStrike in this year’s error rankings.

The cybersecurity company rolled out a patch for Falcon Sensor that brought down over 8 million computers worldwide, many of them in critical infrastructure objects.

If you struggle to play Ubisoft games, try to roll back the update through the Recovery function.
