Free for those who pre-ordered the base game.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ new Claws of Awaji expansion is available now, and is free for those who pre-ordered the base game. Otherwise, the new expansion will set you back $37.95 AUD.
“Claws of Awaji offers over 10 hours of new content, introducing a brand-new region and narrative that expands the story of Naoe and Yasuke,” Ubisoft said of the expansion, which first requires players to finish the base game’s story before playing.
“The adventure begins when Naoe travels to Awaji on the trail of a mysterious shinobi,” Ubisoft continued. “There, alongside Yasuke, she will confront the dangerous Sanzoku Ippa, a ruthless faction threatening the island’s peace. During their new voyage on the mysterious island of Awaji, players will discover vibrant cities and stunning maritime landscapes, but they will need to stay sharp as ambushes and traps soon make it clear that they are far from welcome on Awaji.”
“Claws of Awaji adds a plethora of new content to Assassin’s Creed Shadows, including new skills, weapon abilities, armor, and gear for both Naoe and Yasuke, all of which can carry over to the main game,” Ubisoft said. A new Bo Staff is one such weapon.
“Claws of Awaji players will have access to Legendary Bo staves coming with unique engravings, only available on the Awaji Island,” Ubisoft added.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is available on Windows PC via Steam, Ubisoft Connect, and Epic Games Store alongside Mac, Amazon Luna, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5.
