Assassin's Creed Shadows is one of the most highly anticipated Assassin's Creed titles to date, simply because it was anticipated for years before it was even announced. An Assassin's Creed title set in Japan has been at the top of fans' wish lists for quite some time now, and they are finally getting what they want when Assassin's Creed Shadows releases on November 15, 2024. The next Assassin's Creed game brings plenty of new features to the franchise, including an annual cycle featuring all four seasons. According to Ubisoft, this annual cycle will change the environment in Assassin's Creed Shadows and players will be required to change their playstyle as a result.
