Assassin's Creed Shadows Will Release Its Expansion In A Much Different Way
Ubisoft has now clarified details regarding its expansion for Assassin's Creed Shadows. After getting rid of the season pass, the expansion is now a preorder bonus.
The expansion is called Claws of Awaji, made by the developers behind Assassin's Creed Mirage. Here, protagonists Yasuke and Naoe travel to the island of Awaji beyond Osaka Bay. A new enemy called the Sanzoku Ippa will hunt down Yasuke and Naoe as they try to secure a lost treasure. Naoe also gets a new weapon type--the bo staff.
Claws of Awaji will add over 10 hours of additional content to the game and will be released later in 2025. While the expansion is a preorder bonus, it will also be available as a separate purchase later on. Those who preorder will also get the extra "Thrown to the Dogs" side quest.
