Ubisoft\u2019s Assassin\u2019s Creed Valhalla<\/strong> and Watch Dogs Legion<\/strong> both support free next-gen upgrades<\/a>, allowing owners of a PS4 copy to get the enhanced version on PS5 completely free.<\/p>\n

This has always been the case, across both console platforms. However, many<\/a> players<\/a> are simply unable to claim their free upgrades. The free upgrade option does not show up for affected players, and they instead see the game\u2019s normal price.<\/p>\n
