Ubisoft Quebec is currently focusing on sparser but "chunkier updates that shake things up" for the open-world action RPG.
The company noted in its earnings report that Assassin's Creed Shadows has benefited from continuous post-launch updates and the DLC.
The port costs $59.99 and features cross-progression and touch-screen support. It doesn't include Claws of Awaji, which launches next year.
Many of the negative reviews of the DLC on Steam complain about technical issues, including crashes and the DLC quests not triggering.
The Claws of Awaji expansion becomes available only after finishing Assassin’s Creed Shadows and meeting specific requirements. Is it worth the effort?
Naoe ventures to Awaji Island on a personal journey and goes up against the Sanzoku Ippa in this new 10+ hour expansion.
One of the four new antagonists, Awaki, is armed with a long-range rifle and skilled in stealth, requiring a different approach.
Awaji Island offers beaches, swamps and other new biomes for Naoe and Yasuke to navigate as they deal with a dangerous new faction.
Naoe and Yasuke venture to a new region in the action RPG's first story expansion, which is free for those who pre-ordered the base game.
However, the open-world title's expansion could still be pushed back to October, depending on Ubisoft's release plans for the year.
Available free for pre-orders, the expansion offers over 10 hours of content. It includes a new region, weapon type, skills, and gear.
The expansion adds a new region, weapon type, enemies, skills, and gear as players feel "the fear of being hunted and under threat."
