Sorry if old :
Ubisoft’s reason to downgrade PS4 version of Assassin’s Creed is quite genius !
''Ubisoft’s reasoning for this was that the Xbox One can only do 900p/30 frames per second, and Ubisoft didn’t want to make Xbox One users feel inferior. Pontbriand said that they just limited the PS4 version to the Xbox One to “avoid all the debates and stuff”. This is despite the fact that the PS4’s GPU is 50% more powerful than the Xbox One’s, and can easily run games at 1080p.
But the exact opposite has happened: Ubisoft’s decision has caused far more debate than if they had just stuck with 1080p for the PlayStation 4 version. Last year’s Assassin’s Creed 4 was upgraded to full HD with a post-launch patch, but Ubisoft has made no such announcement so far for Unity.
Ubisoft’s reason to “avoid all debates and stuff” completely backfired — we’re talking more about this than we ever would have if the PS4 version offered 1080p from the get go. If that was the case, it would have been just another PS4 game that runs at a higher resolution that the Xbox One. It’s so common, it’s barely worth writing about these days.
But to purposefully downgrade the game? That’s worth writing about !!!''

''And maybe that’s what Ubisoft intended. People are now talking about Assassin’s Creed Unity more than ever. In fact, nobody really talked about the game before — it was just another Assassin’s Creed game coming out. Now there’s a reason to talk about the game. And the people talking about it (especially PS4 gamers) are really passionate, which is a must for a good PR trick.
And when all this calms down and people start forgetting that it happened, Ubisoft will announce that the PlayStation 4 version of Assassin’s Creed Unity will get a patch to get it to 1080p — just like with the previous Assassin’s Creed game.
It’s quite genius, actually, and one of the better PR moves of the year !''

Quite obvious if you ask me. So, PS4 owners might play it at 1080p after all, it's a possibility.
