If you're one of the early adopters of Assassin's Creed Shadows, you may have noticed that the game's first update has gone live on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S today, clocking in at 8.88GB on both platforms.
That said, there's very little going on in this update - in fact, there are only three patch notes to mention:
- Stabilization - Fixed some global issues
- [PS5] Fixed a Photo mode issue that could cause a crash when fetching photos to display on the world map.
- [PC] Fixed a Photo mode issue that could cause a crash when taking a photo.
So... yeah. Not a lot for 8.88GB! Here's hoping for a more meaty update in the near future.

Strange it’s only 1.41gb on PS5.
Amazing game. Loving every second of it.
@Kaloudz
Completely second this. Probably the best looking game I've played and it's a blast.
It can be relaxing just exploring Japan. And then crazy chaotic when you've been found inside a castle and have two daishos and three guardians coming at you while the ashigaru shoot from a distance. 🤣
And the story is really good so far. Some missions are really really epic.
@OldGamer999 Not too surprising, the PS5’s compression tech is likely responsible. Games are just bigger on Series S/X due to that.
@Lup It's an absolute stunner isn't it? Totally agree too. It can go from zen to hell-let-loose in the blink of an eye.
I was trotting around on my horse, cantering about and taking in the sights, and then a flamin' Ronin slapped me about like I'd just killed his dog.
I love the balance they've found in everything. The map, the push for exploration, the story, the freedom - and the base building. It's so free it's ridiculous.
Who are you playing as?

I think that's the funniest things you've ever said, @Kaloudz. If you disregard all the times you have praised Microsoft, that is... 🤣
@Fiendish-Beaver Y'know what? Keep this up and I'll be eating me a beaver before I get round to that pie 😁
@Kaloudz
I have to say, I laughed at that too.
The first time a Ronin tried to kill me I was like"What? But I didn't do anything!".
I was ambushed a few times by a fistful of soldiers too. It's really cool, haha.
I'm using Yasuke a lot more to be honest. I knew I was gonna love him gameplay-wise but I'm also loving his character which in my opinion, it's a lot more interesting than what a normal japanese samurai could have been. 🤣
Bug fixes are always good. I am taking my time robbing castles and bandit camps blind. Gonna have a fully decked out hideout in no time. Why is this game so pretty? Nothing like raiding a castle at night during a thunderstorm. You can’t see me, you can’t hear me. After Naoe’s parkour, the other assassins feel clumsy.
@dskatter @OldGamer999 It's not just the compression tech, it's some fundamental way the two console APIs store information and apply upgrades. There have been many times the Xbox update is many times the PlayStation update. Not a huge deal, but perhaps something Microsoft can improve in future.
@themightyant
As long I have quick resume I’m happy
And for the next Xbox. 😊
Not sure whether you have seen the 'Nice beaver' line from Naked Gun, @Kaloudz. Watch the below and it'll explain why your comment had me in stitches... 🤣

@Lup The first time a Ronin tried to kill me I was like"What? But I didn't do anything!".
Same!! Like, he just wailed on me (eventually killing me) and I had no idea what the heck I did wrong. I even moved out his walking path so that I didn't knock him down lol.
Ah see, I'm swapping between them but I'm leaning more towards (I cant spell) Naoa? I just love her attire - but I'm almost convinced Yasuke is a little stronger...
@Fiendish-Beaver That's exactly what I had in mind before hitting enter lmao! I even downloaded it after sending to watch in the coming weeks!
