Ubisoft's new Animus Hub, a central control center for the Assassin's Creed franchise, simplifies access to the series' extensive library. Launching alongside Assassin's Creed Shadows, the Hub acts as a central launchpad for games like Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla, Mirage, and the upcoming Hexe.

Mirroring the approach of Battlefield and Call of Duty, Animus Hub streamlines gameplay access. Beyond launching games, the Hub introduces special missions, dubbed "Anomalies," exclusive to Assassin's Creed Shadows. Completing these Anomalies rewards players with cosmetic items or in-game currency for acquiring new outfits and weaponry.

Animus Hub extends beyond game launching, offering enriched content. Players can delve into journals, notes, and other materials detailing Assassin's Creed's modern-day storyline, providing a more comprehensive understanding of the franchise's interconnected narrative.

Assassin's Creed Shadows transports players to feudal Japan, immersing them in the world of samurai conflicts and intrigue. The game is slated for release on March 20, 2025, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
