New features coming too
This volume promises a rich exploration of Japanese history, culture and mythology, with significant improvements and new features over previous titles.
DYNAMICS
You can look forward to an improved version of the engine
Assassin's Creed Shadows Nintendo Switch 2 uses an enhanced version of the Anvil engine, called Anvil Pipeline, which includes advanced features such as ray-traced global illumination and dynamic weather. Players can look forward to improved combat mechanics with a higher level of brutality, including the ability to decapitate, similar to Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Stealth features have been expanded, allowing for things like turning off torches and hiding in tall grass.
BUILDING
Customize your base
One of the new and notable features of Assassin's Creed Shadows Nintendo Switch 2 is the Hideout system, where players can build and customize their base, including structures such as armouries and dojo. The system offers extensive customisation options, from layouts to decorations, enhancing the player's connection to the game environment.
SAMURAI
Naoe shinobi asasin and Yasuke legendary samurai side by side
In Assassin's Creed Shadows Nintendo Switch 2, you'll seamlessly switch between two unlikely allies and discover their shared destiny, preparing Japan for a new era. Explore the captivating open world of feudal Japan, where magnificent castle cities, bustling ports, peaceful shrines and war-torn landscapes await. The adventure will be complemented by unpredictable weather, changing seasons and a reactive environment.
ASSASSIN
Characters are allies while independent
Play for Naoe, shinobi assassin, that uses stealth and agility to confuse the enemy, or for Yasuke, of the legendary samurai, who attacks with precision and power. Unlock new skills and equipment for each character independently. As you explore the world of Assassin's Creed Shadows Nintendo Switch 2, use information as your weapon and build a network of spies to help you hunt down your targets.
