Ubisoft has released a patch for Watch Dogs Legion which contains fixes for all platforms.

Some of the fixes in the Watch Dogs Legion patch are global, but the majority are platform-specific.

One fix which has been on players' minds for a while is not included. This is the save issue with Xbox Series X/S.

The dev team has identified the underlying cause, though, and is working on an additional fix for this specific issue.

Apparently, the save issue is with the auto-save function. Progress is lost in the game upon closing and reopening.

Hopefully, this will be sorted soon. In the meantime, have a look over the patch notes for today's update below.
