Ubisoft recently confirmed the name of its upcoming title, Assassin’s Creed: Shadows<\/em>, set during Japan’s feudal era. Now, it appears the game’s release date and pricing scheme may have been leaked ahead of time, two days before Ubisoft was set to share a trailer.<\/p>
Well-known and reputable leakers on X (formerly Twitter) have revealed the potential release date and DLC pricing of Assassin’s Creed<\/a>: Shadows<\/em>, Ubisoft’s latest entry to the long-running franchise. Wario64 shared<\/a> a screenshot of AC: Shadows<\/em>‘ YouTube premiere today, with a description that suggests the game is set to be released on Nov. 15. Massive AAA titles usually launch during the fall of each year, and the last two AC <\/em>games were released in October and November, respectively. Another reputable leaker<\/a>, Frax, shared information on AC: Shadows<\/em>‘ DLC pricing scheme, with two expansions potentially set to cost $25 each. <\/p>
Frax also revealed that AC: Shadows<\/a> <\/em>will potentially have a $40 season pass, a $35 “Welcome Pack” containing a good chunk of in-game currency, and implied the game may have purchasable currency packs. These will reportedly cost players between $5 and $50 depending on the bundle, similar to how things were in recent Assassin’s Creed <\/em>games. These are all unofficial and pre-release leaks and are subject to change, however. <\/p>
AC: Shadows <\/em>has been within the gaming sphere for over a year now, known previously as Codename: Red<\/em>. The game will be revealed with a cinematic trailer on May 15 and might feature a female protagonist<\/a>. It marks the fourteenth mainline installment<\/a> in the company’s biggest franchise, which has been releasing almost yearly since 2007. The most recent entries were Mirage <\/em>and Valhalla<\/em>, the latter following a years-long live-service model. <\/p>
