Ubisoft has heard your cries: it's now looking into the possibility of adding 60 frames-per-second support to Assassin's Creed Origins via a PlayStation 5 patch. There has been an outcry from fans after Assassin's Creed Odyssey was treated to the update earlier in the year, with supporters hoping the French publisher would do the same for Bayek's adventure across Egypt. It now seems that will indeed happen.
Ubisoft shared the news as part of Assassin's Creed Day, stating: "We are also looking into adding 60FPS support for Assassin's Creed Origins, so stay tuned!" The publisher also thanked the fans for their "continued support, passion & vigilance". There'll be more news on Assassin's Creed Valhalla and the future of the franchise, Ubisoft said.
So, there you have it: Assassin's Creed Origins will more than likely receive 60FPS support in the future as Ubisoft investigates the possibility. Assassin's Creed Origins was the first entry after the series was rebooted, and it made for a great game.
In our PS4 review, we concluded: "Without a doubt the best Assassin's Creed game since Black Flag – and right up there with the best entries in the entire series – Assassin's Creed Origins is a top notch open world title. Egypt itself is the star of the show, Ubisoft having meticulously crafted a stunningly detailed and varied landscape, but outside of the setting, a parade of gameplay and design improvements make this the roaring return to form that the franchise desperately needed."
60 frames-per-second will only make the title even better. Have you been hoping for this PS5 patch? Let us know in the comments below.

Loved this game so much I completed it 100%, DLC included. It rekindled my love for AC. Then Odyssey happened...
I wish they would instead get Syndicate working properly on PS5 but cool for folks who like Origins.
Awesome, this has been sitting in my library for years, this would def. motivate me to finally start it
Perfect! Been holding off doing the DLC hoping for this patch.
I bought this in a recent bundle sale, gambling a bit that they’d add this feature. Having not played an AC since 3, I’m excited to finally give this trio of games a spin, now with some extra motivation to start sooner than later.
How about you fix AC Syndicate first for PS5 considering its busted on it and you're doing nothing about it.
@Korgon yea they really need to fix synd its been quite a while now
Origins was the start of me falling out with Ass Creed. I know people will say the combat was too simple in the old days but I miss the way the old games played.
Origins was an absolute chore of a game for me. The game world is lovely but i had to force myself to get through it. I think because of that it killed off any interest i had in playing odyssey or valhalla.
Obviously just my opinion which i am aware is against the grain for this one.
Finally, this makes me very happy!
@Lem1697 I preferred Odyssey
Good news if it happens. Will definitely dive back in! Meanwhile...RDR2 fans are still waiting for a 60fps patch from Rockstar 🙄
Yes indeed...this will give me the motivation to get stuck back in..
Yesssss! This is great news! This and black flag are my favourite AC games
Assasin creed odyssey play really good with 60 fps on ps5 (just like the division 2). For me ubisoft games basically a different game playing on ps4 or ps5, 60 fps make the games really pleasant.
I hope origin get the 60 fps and quick loading patch too
Are there enough people left at ubiosft to make this patch?
Still good news tho and long overdue
Nice!!! Playing Odyssey at 60fps is really nice. Game evens looks like a solid 4k too. Hopefully origins looks the same as well. Looking forward to this.
This felt so good already with 30.Want to finish it third time but not really in Nightmare Mode cause f****n homing arrows huah
I'm just playing this game now on PS4 Pro for the first time and I'm loving it. But this news makes me want to push it off until I can get a PS5. I have already decided to set aside a sizable chunk of my backlog that has been patched for PS5, but I didn't think any developers would go back as far to patch a 2017 title. I mean just look at Rockstar for example. They refuse to patch RDR2 and that's a 2018 game. Kudos to Ubisoft for updating their 2 previous titles.
Regarding Syndicate and its issues on PS5, I think that's more on Sony to iron out in their back compat tech; the game does run fine on the hardware it was designed for. Additionally, Series X/S don't have these types of issues with their BC solution.
Best setting of the last three games.
Loved Bayek and the two bows gimmick.
Odyssey may be the best overall but it’s still my favorite and the “shortest”.
I’d gladly replay a NG+ at 60fps
@Nightcrawler71 knowing our luck, rockstar will rerelease rdr2 with the "upgrades", like they are doing with gta v, for that money.
I don't care about it too much, but it's cool for the people who wanted it.
Sweet, lets see if we can get all the way back to Black Flag! Now we just need them to work on AC Syndicate/AC Trilogy (which is in 4k but no 60fps and on Xbox it's 60fps thanks to performance boost but 900p) next.
@Nightcrawler71 Considering the issue that RDR2 had when it was ported to PC with some of the game logic being tied to framerate. I'm not surprised we haven't seen a 60FPS patch yet on consoles. A lot of the game is hard-coded to that 30FPS cap.
Awesome news! Ha ha...anyone else developing a backlog of games where you're waiting for the inevitable PS5 friendly upgrade? Cyberpunk...Witcher 3...heck even God of War and now this game.
I finished Syndicate on my base PS4. This and Shadow Of The Colossus (which has blurred textures on PS5) were the last games before I moved the PS4 to my old room at my parent's home.
Hopefully there won't be any more games that won't run properly on PS5. Although, DOOM (2016) and SOMA have flickering textures in a few places (not annoying really) on PS5.
Awesome news! My badgering has worked!
@Dange I'm in a similar situation except I don't have a PS5 yet. Just started the game last week and I'm only a few hours in. I'm enjoying it too much to stop, so I think I'm gonna continue playing, but I'll try to leave some side quests and unexplored locations for PS5. Also, I'll eventually pick up the season pass, so I'll play that on PS5 as well. If I was in your shoes I would probably stop and play something else since 1. you can't be too far in if you just started it last night and 2. you've already gotten used to 60 fps on PS5, so the transition will be more jarring to you.
This is fantastic news! I like all three of the newer games, and I am glad now that I have not finished Origins. This will be great going back to it, as it was Odyssey after it received the 60 fps. Good job Ubisoft!
@Jayslow Ha, same for me!
@PenguinL Hopefully we'll see a return of the occasional shorter, more focused AC game within this AC Infinity thing.
This would be the best thing UbiSoft has done in a while since Valhalla - okay maybe Riders' Republic can somewhat count as one.
Origins is hands down my favorite in the series and it's not even really close.
Why haven't they done a 60fps patch for the far cry games especially blood dragon classic edition that's just came out.... Pure laziness
I've never played Origins before, happy they're updating the fps!
.. and almost 20 weeks later, still no more news.
Please Ubisoft, even if you can't give an ETA, at least let people know that it's still being worked on, or was looked at, and for whatever reason, you're not doing it anymore.
