Ubisoft has clarified that the upcoming game Assassin’s Creed Shadows will not require a continuous online connection, allowing players to enjoy the entire game offline once it is installed.
‘Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ complete journey available in offline mode
In response to community queries, Ubisoft confirmed that while an online connection is necessary to install Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the game can be played offline after installation.
This means players can explore Feudal Japan without needing a constant internet connection.
The announcement has been welcomed by fans who prefer offline gaming or have unreliable internet access.
The game will offer an immersive experience set in Japan, featuring dual protagonists and a blend of stealth and samurai combat.
When is ‘Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ release date?
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set to release on 15 November 2024.
The game will be available on multiple platforms, including PS5, Xbox Series X, PS4, and PC.
Pre-orders are now live following the release of the game’s first cinematic trailer, which has generated significant excitement.
The trailer reveals a setting reminiscent of the original Assassin’s Creed games, with a focus on stealth and action in a beautifully crafted Japanese environment.
The new instalment promises a vast world similar in size to Assassin’s Creed Origins, offering a rich, expansive playground for players.
Despite the excitement, it has been confirmed that the game will not feature co-op gameplay.
Instead, it will follow the approach of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, with players alternating between a male and female protagonist.
Pre-ordering Assassin’s Creed Shadows will grant players access to an exclusive quest titled Thrown to the Dogs.
The game aims to cater to both long-time fans of the series and newcomers, particularly those who enjoyed the setting and gameplay style of Ghost of Tsushima.
