Ubisoft works on 60fps mode for Watch Dogs: Legion on consoles
Ubisoft's games were among the first to embrace the added hardware power of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S consoles. Whether it's old games or new ones, almost all current Ubisoft titles on the mentioned consoles have the option of playing in 60 fps, something they haven't had in years.
From older titles to 60 fps, The Division 2, For Honor and Ghost Recon Breakpoint jumped, while the new Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Immortals: Fenyx Rising also went at 60 frames per second. It has also been announced that future games like Far Cry 6 and Riders Republic will also have a performance of 60 fps.
The only exception to this whole story is the Watch Dogs Legion, which goes at the same 30 fps on the new consoles as on the old ones (albeit with better graphics). However, Ubisoft has confirmed that they are currently working on an optional mode that will improve the game's performance.

Do you have an ETA on New Game+?
Is there any update on a performance mode which targets 60fps on next generation consoles?

They still don’t have a date when they should complete the 60 fps mode, but judging by the comments on Reddit, fans of the game are patient and willing to wait a while for the first Watch Dogs that will be able to be played at 60 fps on consoles.
I prefer a resolution boost most of all
