It's been over three weeks since Watch Dogs: Legion made its launch on the Xbox Series X|S and many users, including us here at Pure Xbox, are still experiencing issues with the game refusing to save.
For those that aren't aware, Watch Dogs: Legion players are finding the game is not saving automatically, suffering from crashing and freezing issues in some cases. The issue is widespread enough that every time the game's social media channels share a post, the comments are plagued with players asking for a fix.
Currently, there's no estimated time for a fix, although the team has identified the issue and is working to get it remedied as soon as possible - it was hinted last month that a patch might be ready for early December.
With no real workaround or end in sight, the game is fairly unplayable for a large amount of people who are losing hours upon hours of progress every time they boot the game up. Is this an issue that's also affecting you, or is this the first you're hearing about it? Even better, if you are affected, have you found a workaround?
Let us know your experiences with this Watch Dogs: Legion saving problem in the comments below.

Yeah, luckily I was aware of the bug before it struck, so I only lost about 20 minutes progress.
I played for about 3 hours when I first installed the game.
When I went back to play the next day I was right back to the start, was really confused. I do take some comfort that it’s a known issue and will be resolved.
I’m avoiding playing until I know it’s fixed which is a shame.
I was going to buy this game in the digital Black Friday sale, but decided not to when I learned that the save issues are still there. I hope this gets fixed until the next time it goes on sale.
I've got my share of save issues, too.
I'm being really carefull now on how I quit the game. But even so, it can sometimes make me do the same mission all over again...
I've been affected by this bug 3 times! Lost a total of 6hrs of gameplay. Not even going to touch this game again until this gets fixed. Pretty upsetting I was really enjoying the game also.
I have stopped playing it and moved on too other games until it is fixed.
I only have had the bug once in my 38 hours so far, when the advertising boards load in as white that is when you know the bug is active and to quit out of the game and restart.
Yep, played for hours on Day 1. Then I played on Day 2, and it took me to the beginning. I rebooted several times, thinking it was some error, but, looked online and saw it was widespread. Got a refund, but then brought again for the Sale on Black Friday, and am now just waiting for the fix to enjoy, since I actually enjoyed it for the hours I was playing on Day 1.
Yep played for couple of days with no problems....I maybe had 15 recruits, game crashed and then came back literally back where I had just made first recruit, not gone back since. Played Yakuza 0 from start to finish instead.
I also lost a ton of progress and stopped playing because if it. What really stings is that some of the tasks were incredibly tiresome (Black Hole of Battersea was a joyless slog, as was another task that seemed to consist of an endless drone flight through the air vents of a building). I really didn't want to end up doing these again. Ubisoft can do one.
