Get ready for an epic adventure in 16th-century Japan with Assassin's Creed Shadows! Pre-order now and immerse yourself in the world of samurais and ninjas.

Ubisoft has unveiled the highly anticipated Assassin's Creed Shadows, previously known as Codename: Red. Set in the turbulent Sengoku-era Japan, this installment fulfills the long-standing desire of fans to explore this historical period. Players will be transported to a vivid world of samurais, ninjas, and intrigue like never before.

The game's unique requirement of an internet connection for installation but not for gameplay has sparked mixed reactions among the gaming community. Despite the online installation necessity, gamers can enjoy the full experience offline after the initial setup. Additionally, rumors are swirling about the introduction of a battle pass system in Assassin's Creed Shadows, adding a new dynamic to the single-player adventure.

Scheduled for release in November on PS5, Xbox Series X, PS4, and PC, players can already pre-order different editions of the game. From the base game to exclusive bonus quests and season passes, there's a variety of options for fans to choose from. Whether opting for early access or bonus content, Assassin's Creed enthusiasts are gearing up for an immersive and thrilling gaming experience.

Assassin's Creed Shadows promises to revolutionize the series by making significant changes to gameplay features like viewpoints and companions. Fast travel points will no longer trigger panoramic shots, and the absence of a bird companion for enemy spotting will provide a fresh take on exploration and combat. As excitement mounts for the upcoming release, the anticipation is high for the innovative twists and turns that Assassin's Creed Shadows will bring to the gaming world.
