Assassin's Creed Unity's fifth patch is due out for the PC version tomorrow, fixing a small number of issues. It's a far cry away from the gargantuan patches of last year, which had to deal with hundreds of bugs.
One issue has persisted throughout, though: the broken companion and Initiate apps. Patch 5 solves that by giving everyone all the exclusive content without needing to mess around on phones and in browsers.
Now, thankfully, both can be ignored. All of the content unlocked using those apps will be made accessible to all players with the new patch.
This isn't the first time Ubisoft has done this. All the chests normally unlocked using the apps were made Dead Kings DLC was made free for all after it scrapped the season .
