Assassin’s Creed Shadows has unveiled an exciting year 1 post-launch update roadmap, promising a wealth of new content and story expansions for its dedicated fanbase. Released over a month ago, the game continues to evolve with Ubisoft's commitment to delivering fresh and engaging experiences in the months ahead.

Year 1 Post-Launch Roadmap

On May 1, Ubisoft took to Twitter (X) to share their detailed plans for Assassin’s Creed Shadows (AC Shadows). The year 1 roadmap is packed with new story and gameplay enhancements, ensuring that players remain immersed in the world of AC Shadows.

A highlight of the roadmap is the introduction of new Story Drops. These are multiple free content updates that will enrich the game's narrative. Ubisoft has promised that these drops will not only introduce new player abilities and allies but also offer new world activities. Each piece of content will delve deeper into the backstories of beloved characters, providing an expanded universe for fans to explore.

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 ripe for exploration post-epilogue. 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 expansion comes as a complimentary addition for those who pre-ordered AC Shadows, though it will also be available for purchase to other players. To dive deeper into the details of AC Shadows' DLCs and roadmap, make sure to check out our comprehensive article below!
