The new patch will make will be bringing a series of fixes like Campaign and Coop crashes, relocking of gear and outfit, not spawning of 'Find Leon' objective, matchmaking and connection issues, Arno losing control, minor FX and texture issues and many more.
Apart from the fixes, Ubisoft has also said in a post on its website that it will be "unlocking all content exclusive" to the Initiates along with the Companion App. This is in fact good news for players who were hesitant to download the app on their cellphones and as VG247 points out many players were left annoyed by the when the app minimised the game in order to load Initiates.
