Ubisoft announced the launch of the game “Shadows of Assassin's Creed” It has been delayed for several months, as we recently reported. In the official statement, the publisher justified the delay by desire To further improve your gaming experience.

But there also appears to be a previously unannounced situation at play. As usually informed Tom Henderson reports, players will likely be able to make their way through the action adventure with a Japanese setting together.

According to insiders, a co-op mode is in the works

on Indoor games Henderson reports that Ubisoft is working on a co-op mode for “Assassin's Creed Shadows.” However, the game mode codenamed “LEAGUE” did not become possible due to delays, but was previously under development.

It is expected that the cooperative mode will be released after the release of the main game. Although there is little concrete information so far, it makes sense that protagonists Naoe and Yasuke will become the focus of their shared adventures.

In addition to “Assassin's Creed Shadows,” Ubisoft is developing other projects in the “Assassin's Creed” universe. This includes an independent one The multiplayer title is codenamed InvictusIt is expected in 2025. There is also one Remake of “Assassin's Creed Black Flag” Under the codename Obsidian.
