Year 1 Post-Launch Roadmap

Since its release over a month ago, Assassin’s Creed Shadows (AC Shadows) has captivated fans worldwide.

One of the highlights of the roadmap is the introduction of new Story Drops. These are multiple free content updates that enrich the game's narrative.

In addition to the free content, Ubisoft is gearing up for the release of their first expansion, "The Claws of Awaji," slated for later this year. This DLC will take players to the island of Awaji, a brand-new region to explore post-epilogue. Players can expect to encounter new enemies, gain new abilities for both protagonists, and wield an exclusive new weapon for Naoe.

The Claws of Awaji expansion comes free for those who pre-ordered AC Shadows, but will also be available for purchase by other players. For more detailed information on AC Shadows’ DLCs and the full roadmap, be sure to check out our comprehensive article below!
