This update fixes issues on all platforms.
Update 1.05 has been released for Watch Dogs: Legion, and here’s the full list of changes and fixes added with this patch. This update fixes several issues across all platforms except PC, but Ubisoft has a dedicated PC patch on the way with fixes specific to that platform.
