I have returned to the game after 2 years and noticed the same - really high CPU usage on my 9700k. Something has definitely changed.

[bobes sponja]

lower the priority of all ubisoft processes (except for the game, obviously) in task manager, that helps a bit

[egs]

uninstall ubisoft conenct to solve the issue

[It's Chase]

Turning off the ubisoft connect overlay might help.

For me the solution is to disable ubisoft overlay, close every window of ubisoft connect when you're playing.

Win+R -type power - power settings-advange settings - edit-max cpu usage setting should be there

i5 9400f
rx 560
16 gb ram
windows 11 pro 'it was the same problem in windows 10'
im playing in low settings
i get around 120fps
even if the game is not lagging but with 90% cpu usage i cant use discord or any another application because the usage will be 100%

Turn off " IN-GAME OVERLAY " from uplay. And it'll fix it.

Ive i5 7500.
Discord uses 4-7%
R6 uses 48-51% ( without uplay overlay )
87-98% ( with uplay overlay )

uplay ( the new one ) is a buggy mess thats why it uses so much CPU.

how to accepte friend invite if u disable it ?

I'll only open up window of uplay if I wanted to invite/accept invite from my friends, after which I'll close it down again
