Assassin’s Creed Odyssey to get 60 FPS support on PS5 and Xbox Series X / S

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will officially get 60 FPS support on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S with backward compatibility tomorrow, August 24.

Ubisoft shared the news on Twitter, revealing that it will be part of the Assassin’s Creed Odyssey 1.6.0 title update. It’s obviously a welcome addition for those with next-gen consoles, especially since there isn’t a proper PS5 or Xbox Series X / S version of 2018’s Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.

Adding 60 FPS support to older games is becoming a big trend in this generation PS5 and Xbox Series X / S, and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is following games like Dark Souls 3 and The Last of Us Part 2 by giving away another reason for fans to come back. .

In our review of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, we said that its “open world adventure through ancient Greece is a magnificent thrill, and the best the series has ever been”.

Assassin’s Creed games are known for their post-launch support, from bug fixes to expansions to DLCs, and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is no different as it recently got its Siege of Paris expansion.

Bringing Assassin’s Creed Odyssey to 60 FPS is ideal for fans who want to jump back into the story or experience it for the first time and prepare for Assassin’s Creed Infinity – a game that represents a huge change in the franchise as it would be an online platform that could include several historical settings and evolve over time in a way seen in Fortnite and Grand Theft Auto Online.
