An Assassin’s Creed Origins 60 FPS Update Could Be On The Way

The ancient Egypt of Assassin’s Creed Origins is a visually stunning place to explore, and it could soon look even better. 

That’s because Ubisoft has revealed that it’s looking into adding 60 FPS support to the Bayak-led Assassin’s Creed title. This news was announced today, December 21, which also happens to be Assassin’s Creed Day. No, it’s not an anniversary for the first Assassin’s Creed title or any title in the franchise. It’s the day of the Winter Solstice, and in Assassin’s Creed lore, December 21, 2012, was supposed to be the end of the world. 

Desmond Miles, however, gave his life to save Juno from destruction. That happened in 2012’s Assassin’s Creed 3. Assassin’s Creed Origins would be released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC five years later. The story, as the title suggests, is about the origins of the Assassin Brotherhood or what would eventually become the Brotherhood. It sounds like soon we’ll be able to experience that origin story in 60 FPS. 

Ubisoft didn’t reveal any additional information. There’s no word of when this 60 FPS patch might go through, nor is there a definitive guarantee it will happen – just Ubisoft’s assertion that it’s “looking into adding 60 FPS support for Assassin’s Creed Origins.”
