    Assassin's Creed: Origins - PC Pre-Download

    Hello everyone (hopefully Ubisoft employees included)

    I pre-ordered the Origins Dawn of the Creed Collectors Edition. It shows up in my PC Uplay app as a "Coming Soon" game but there isn't any option to pre-download it so that I don't have to spend a lot of time downloading it the day it comes out (This is an option for Xbox One.) If anyone knows how to do it that would be awesome and if there isn't a way I'm hoping a Ubisoft employee will read this and at the very least suggest having a Pre-Download for PC with the next game that comes out.

    As far as I know pre-load will be available, 2-3 days before the release date but not now

    Thanx, I was wondering the same...

    Thanx, I was wondering the same, so in around 2 weeks possibly.

    It's going to take me about 8 hours to download the anticipated 42.3 gigabytes.

    I'm guessing there will be a Day-1 patch to download some assets that actually get the game running (to try and stop the pre-download from being cracked ahead of release). So yeah, be ready for that additional download too

    Hi, sorry for the delayed response!

    There will be pre-loading before the game is released, however I don't have the specific dates and times to provide at the moment. I recommend keeping an eye here on the forums and on the ACO website for updates

    pre-downloading ac origins

    That's great news, for I am in an area that only has 10 mbs download plans! So this file will take me a couple of days just to download!
