Details about an expansion for Assassin’s Creed Shadows has leaked on the game’s Steam page, which has now been scrubbed of this information.
According to Insider Gaming, the expansion is called Claws of Awaji and it features an additional 10 hours of gameplay. Players will be able to travel to a new location and unlock a new weapon type, as well as skills, gears, and abilities. Other that that, there’s no other info regarding what the expansion’s story is.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows was originally planned for a release date of February 14, but was delayed once again to March 20. The decision was made in order to further improve its gameplay quality and performance.
Ubisoft is going through a tumultuous time right now, as it’s currently trying to pursue “various transformational strategic and capitalistic options” to maximize shareholder value. Ubisoft is reportedly looking for a buyer, such as Tencent. Ubisoft also recently responded to a report about abuse at an Indonesian support studio that assisted with the game.
Players will be able to perform new parkour moves and a Naruto run with the female co-protagonist, Naoe. Assassin’s Creed Shadows is also reportedly receiving a co-op mode called League, where Naoe and the other co-protagonist, Yasuke, could fight alongside each other.
