Ubisoft has released patch notes alongside their 1.0.3 update for Assassins Creed Origins. The patch rolled out on all platforms a few days ago and adds a ton of changes, fixes, and new additions. While Xbox One X version will be getting the 4K treatment in this update, HDR support is being added to the Xbox One S and PS4 versions as well.

There is also a good chunk of gameplay issues players might’ve found in the game when Assassin’s Creed Origins first launched that should now be fixed. Controls while on mounts have been adjusted, spawn locations, glitches during combat, and much more.

There have been some changes made to the user interface in various areas and menus within the game. Also, Photo Mode has gotten some new additions in this update. You can now edit and use a slew of different photo effects like depth of field, exposure, temperature, tint, saturation, and noise. A camera roll has been implemented into the mode as well as an improved visual grid making it so players can follow the “Rule of Thirds” principle in photography.
