Mega patch in arrivo per Assassin’s Creed III. L’aggiornamento dovrebbe arrivare prima di Natale e va ad aggiustare diversi aspetti del comparto multiplayer e singleplayer al nuovo capitolo della serie action adventure targata Ubisoft.
La “pezza” sarà applicata a tutte le versioni del gioco (pc e console) e le note sono state pubblicate sul forum ufficiale al quale vi rimandiamo. Siamo in dovere di dirvi che però ci sono tantissime anticipazioni e quindi se volete evitarle vi consigliamo di non leggere.
A seguire le note in lingua inglese che troverete sul forum.
