Ubisoft recently confirmed thatAssassin’s Creed Shadows would be released later than expected. Originally scheduled for November 12, the game was pushed back to mid-February 2025. As we recently reported, this delay is said to be due to the need to polish the game and meet fan expectations.
While this delay was bad news for players waiting to play Assassin’s Creed Shadowsa new report shows some good news. Known insider Tom Henderson says that Ubisoft is developing a co-op mode for the game, which will arrive with a post-launch update.
The insider didn’t give any further details about the co-op mode, other than that it’s codenamed “LEAGUE” and that the mode has been in development for some time now. So this is not one of the reasons why Assassin’s Creed Shadows was delayed.
Tom further points out that this won’t be the franchise’s only multiplayer experience. The insider refers to the rumor Assassin’s Creed Invictuswhich is expected to be a multiplayer-focused game and should be available next year. It will offer a completely different experience from other games in the series.
As @xj0nathana known leak, Assassin’s Creed Invictus will allow players to compete in different modes, such as free-for-all and team deathmatch. The tipster adds that the gameplay will be arcade-style, with elements similar to other well-known games like Super Smash Bros.
There will apparently be maps based on previous games Assassin’s Creed et Invictus would contain popular playable characters like Ezio and Cesare Borgia. If this information is confirmed, in particular that concerning the cooperative mode of ShadowsUbisoft could well win back many players disappointed by the latest opuses in the series, which were not very successful.
