- According to a new report, the Assassin’s Creed Shadows Claws of Awaji DLC is seemingly launching in September 2025.
- The DLC will feature 10+ hours of content, including a whole new region for the players to explore.
- A co-op mode is also in development, but appears to be in the earlier stages. It will launch sometime next year.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows now has fewer players than Odyssey, as many left the game fast because it burned them out. Despite the RPG reportedly only selling 367k copies on PC, it appears that Ubisoft is not giving up on all the planned future offerings for it.
A new report suggests that the Assassin’s Creed Shadows Claws of Awaji DLC launches in September 2025. The expansion, initially part of the base game, will bring over 10 hours of content and a whole new region to explore.
Why it matters: Ubisoft is going all in with the first Assassin’s Creed Shadows DLC despite the rumored unsatisfactory sales of the base game. The future content for the game might turn things around.
According to the report by Insider Gaming, the development of the DLC appears to be progressing well. The delay of other major Ubisoft IPs has not affected the future plans for Assassin’s Creed Shadows in any conceivable way.
However, there is still a lingering possibility that the DLC could be pushed back to October this year. This depends on Ubisoft’s release strategy and progress with the DLC.
On the flip side, the rumored co-op mode for Shadows is still in active development despite no official announcement from Ubisoft. However, it is still in earlier stages of development and will allegedly launch sometime next year.
The co-op mode will also apparently feature more playable characters than Naoe and Yasuke, but the finer details remain unknown. Until an official announcement, it is best to be cautiously optimistic.
