The excitement continues for fans of Assassin’s Creed Shadows as Ubisoft unveils the year 1 post-launch update roadmap, packed with engaging new story drops and an upcoming DLC expansion. If you're eager to see what's coming in the next few months, you're in the right place.
Year 1 Post-Launch Roadmap
Since its release over a month ago, Assassin’s Creed Shadows (AC Shadows) has captured the hearts of gamers, and Ubisoft is committed to enhancing the experience with a series of updates. Announced via Twitter (X) on May 1, the year 1 roadmap promises a wealth of new story and gameplay content.
A standout feature is the introduction of Story Drops, which are free content additions designed to enrich the game's world. Ubisoft explains, "These new free quests will introduce new player abilities, new allies, new world activities, and provide deeper looks and backstories for some of your favorite characters, each new piece of content expanding on the main game." This means more adventures and deeper engagement with the lore of AC Shadows.
Moreover, Ubisoft is excited to remind players about their first expansion, The Claws of Awaji, slated for release later this year. This DLC will take players to the new region of Awaji Island, set to be explored post the main game's epilogue. Expect to encounter new enemies, unlock new abilities for both protagonists, and wield an exclusive new weapon for Naoe.
For those who pre-ordered AC Shadows, The Claws of Awaji comes at no extra cost. However, it will also be available for purchase for other players. To delve deeper into what AC Shadows has planned with its DLCs and roadmap, be sure to check out our detailed article below!
