Assassin’s Creed Shadows Post-Launch Updates
Year 1 Post-Launch Roadmap
Since its release over a month ago, Assassin’s Creed Shadows (AC Shadows) has captured the hearts of gamers worldwide. Ubisoft, the game's developer, is committed to enhancing the experience with a series of updates announced on Twitter (X) on May 1. The year 1 post-launch roadmap teases a variety of new story and gameplay content.
A highlight of the roadmap is the introduction of Story Drops, a series of free content updates that will enrich the game's narrative. Ubisoft promises that these additions will not only introduce new player abilities, allies, and world activities but also provide deeper insights and backstories for beloved characters, thereby expanding the main game's universe.
In addition to the free content, fans should mark their calendars for the upcoming first expansion, The Claws of Awaji. Set to release later this year, this DLC will transport players to the new region of Awaji Island, available to explore post-epilogue of the base game. Expect to encounter new enemies, unlock new abilities for both protagonists, and wield an exclusive new weapon for Naoe.
The Claws of Awaji expansion is included for free with pre-orders of AC Shadows, but will also be available for purchase separately. For more insights into AC Shadows’ DLCs and the full roadmap, be sure to check out our detailed article below!
