Update 1.0.6 arrives later today across PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S. Download sizes vary widely; as small as 1.8GB on Steam or as large as a chonky 15.2GB on Xbox.<\/p>\n<p>The highlight feature of 1.0.6 is the addition of an option to hide the Blowpipe. This simply lets you remove the Blowpipe from the protagonist&#8217;s 3D model so it no longer appears on his back.<\/p>\n<p>To hide the Blowpipe (which sounds like a euphemism for something), you simply bring up the inventory screen, hover over your outfit and click R2\/RT to &#8216;hide Gear&#8217;. You can click it again to &#8216;Show Gear&#8217;, if you want the pipe to appear on their back.<\/p>\n<p>Though admittedly a small issue, some players <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/assassinscreed\/comments\/1uska7e\/why_is_there_no_toggle_for_the_blowpip_to_be\/\">complained<\/a> that the Blowpipe ruins the character&#8217;s look and the aesthetics of certain outfits, while others were simply <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/assassinscreed\/comments\/1t5qeqd\/assassins_creed_black_flag_resynced_i_believe_the\/\">too distracted<\/a> by the pipe&#8217;s model constantly clipping through outfits and wanted to remove it.
