Assassin's Creed Unity: 4K 60FPS Upgrade Isn't 4K - But Still A Great Way To Play

Assassin's Creed Unity is a DF favourite, a highly ambitious game from a technological perspective, but under-served by the tech of the PS4/Xbox One era. Last-gen enhanced consoles stabilised the experience, FPS Boost brought Xbox Series X|S to 60fps but now Ubisoft is promising the best of both worlds: 4K at 60fps for PS5/Series X, or 1080p at 60fps on Series S. But the reality is that 4K isn't 4K and 60fps is a target, not a lock. Rich looks at the patch, the state of the original launch game, analysis of the new upgrades and a quick look at the PC experience to prove that this is still a highly demanding title... with issues.
