Now this passed under our radar. We all knew that Ubisoft has been working on a performance patch for the PC version of Watch_Dogs. Still, we were unaware of what exactly that patch would fix. Well, good news everyone as Ubisoft has identified what is causing the stuttering side-effects on the PC version of Watch_Dogs and is currently working on a fix.
As Ubisoft’s UK Forum Manager wrote on the official forum:
“We no longer need any more information, the team has enough to pinpoint the issue now:
We have identified the factors that are creating this particular issue and are currently working on a fix. We’ll keep you updated when we know more on when we’ll be able to release it.”
There were some rumors suggesting that this patch would be coming this week, though nothing is certain at this point. Do note that TheWorse’s upcoming mod may very well improve the game’s stuttering without the need of the official patch.
For what is worth, it’s good to see that Ubisoft has not abandoned Watch_Dogs PC.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
