14 DAY TRIAL // A brand new patch for Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag has just gone live on the PlayStation 4 console, weighing in at a whopping 2.3GB in size but bringing quite a few long awaited improvements to the next-gen game from Ubisoft.
Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag appeared for the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Wii U last November, bringing a bold new experience and signaling a great comeback for the long running franchise, which lost some of its popularity with Assassin's Creed 3.
Now, a fresh patch has just gone live on the PlayStation 4 platform, as a massive new update of around 2.3GB in size is awaiting owners of the game on the PlayStation Network online service.
The patch, found via NeoGAF, brings both single-player and multiplayer changes, including many long awaited improvements.
Bugs relating to the connection with over 100 friends or with the loyalty reward skins not unlocking have been eliminated, while different crashes, freezes, and other issues have also been solved.
