Since the latest Windows 11 update with the number 24H2, some Ubisoft games either cannot be played at all or can no longer be played properly. If you are currently having problems with Ubisoft titles crashing on your PC, if you only see a black screen or if the titles no longer respond in any other way, this could be the problem. Microsoft has officially confirmed this problem, but is already working on a solution.
These Ubisoft games are having problems on PC since the Windows 11 24H2 update
That's what it's about:Some players have already complained online that something is wrong with their games and suspect that the latest Windows update is behind it.Microsoft has now confirmed exactly thatand declares that it is working with publisher Ubisoft to resolve these technical difficulties.
Which Ubisoft games are affected?The following titles are currently said to be affected by the problem:
Star Wars issues mostly fixed:Ubisoft has already released an interim fix for Star Wars Outlaws, so the game should actually be working smoothly again by now. According to Microsoft, there may still be technical difficulties, so it's best not to get excited too early.
This is what Microsoft is doing now:To ensure that you can continue playing your Ubisoft games on Windows 11 computers, the mega-corporation behind Xbox, Windows and Co. has paused the update. The 24H2 update will not be rolled out automatically on PCs that have the corresponding Ubisoft titles installed.
"We recommend that you do not attempt to manually update to version 24H2 using the Windows 11 Setup Wizard or the Media Creation Tool until the issue has been resolved."
