Ubisoft will release Assassin's Creed Shadows update 1.0.2 on 8 April, adding features long requested by fans and improvements for PS5 Pro.

Here's What's New About It

Here are the main changes to the game:

  • Follow the Path feature: Your horses can now automatically follow roads to marked points.
  • Increased speed of horses in cities: Movement has become more dynamic.
  • Skill reset: players can reallocate skill points for Naoe and Yasuke to experiment with different playstyles.
  • Bulk Item Transactions: Added the ability to sell and disassemble multiple items at once, saving time when interacting with merchants and in the Hub Forge.
  • Quick access to the Investigation Board: now you can hold down the Options button to quickly navigate.
  • Improvements for PS5 Pro: the update adds support for PSSR and Raytraced Specular in balanced mode, which increases the graphics quality to a level close to the quality mode.

The game will also remove the 30fps limit for the hub in performance mode on consoles. In addition, bosses will be balanced and double kills will be improved.

Assassin's Creed Shadows has already attracted more than 2 million players and is available on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.
