The Last Content Drop For Assassin's Creed Shadows Happens This Week

In addition to this update, two new projects will be added to the Animus Hub: Projects Undertow and Riptides. They feature Assassin's Creed Black Flag-inspired outfits for Naoe and Yasuke. Following the release of Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced on July 9, players will also be able to unlock Assassin's Creed Shadows-inspired outfits for Edward Kenway.

• Black Tides: A final story arc delivering approximately two hours of narrative content that concludes Naoe and Yasuke's journey while connecting to Edward Kenway's story in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced and the broader Assassin's Creed universe. Access to Black Tides does not require ownership of the Claws of Awaji expansion; however, players must have completed the main story as well as the previous story content updates, A Critical Encounter and A Puzzlement.
• Domains: A replayability-​focused set of challenges comprising five ​end-game simulations with evolving gameplay modifiers. Designed to challenge players' mastery of combat and character builds, Domains offer new unlockable gear, exclusive rewards, and hidden secrets.
• A New Modern-Day Rift: This newly opened Rift reveals emerging threats entitled Horizon. The Eagle will provide more information about the Guide.
