Symptoms

Game freezes after 20-30 minutes after launch. This seems to be a known issue (memory leak caused by ubisoft connect overlay) and the recommended remedy for it is to disable the ubisoft connect overlay in the ubisoft desktop app menu. This works ok in single player mode but as soon as I join a co-op session (either via overlay or from the ubisoft desktop app) the same crashes start to happen again.

Reproduction

  1. Start Far Cry 6
  2. Accept invite to co-op session
  3. Play co-op for ~20min
  4. See it freezing
