The excitement around Assassin’s Creed Shadows continues to grow as Ubisoft has unveiled its ambitious year 1 post-launch roadmap. Launched over a month ago, the game has already captured the hearts of many, and now, with the promise of new content on the horizon, fans have even more reasons to stay engaged. Ubisoft took to Twitter (X) on May 1 to share these exciting plans, ensuring that the journey through the world of AC Shadows is far from over.
Year 1 Post-Launch Roadmap
A key highlight of the roadmap is the introduction of Story Drops. These are not just any updates; they are free content additions that promise to enrich the Assassin’s Creed Shadows experience. Ubisoft has detailed that these Story Drops will bring new quests, introducing players to fresh abilities, new allies, and additional world activities. Moreover, these drops will delve deeper into the backstories of beloved characters, expanding the narrative universe of the main game. This approach ensures that players have continuous, engaging content to explore without additional cost.
In addition to the free Story Drops, Ubisoft is gearing up for the release of their first expansion, The Claws of Awaji, slated for later this year. This expansion will transport players to the island of Awaji, a new region to explore post-epilogue of the base game. Players can look forward to encountering new enemies, mastering new abilities for both protagonists, and wielding an exclusive new weapon for Naoe. The Claws of Awaji comes as a complimentary addition for those who pre-ordered AC Shadows, while others can purchase it separately.
