Assassin's Creed Shadows will hit Switch 2 on December 2
Assasin’s Creed Shadows is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 on December 2, Ubisoft announced today in its fall roadmap update. The Switch 2 drop will include all of the game’s updates aside from the recent Claws of Awaji expansion, which will be added in 2026. It’ll also support cross-progression through Ubisoft Connect, allowing players to continue a current game on the new platform. The Switch 2 version of Assassin’s Creed Shadows will support a unique feature, too: touchscreen interactions in the menus, including the world map, store and hideout.Ubisoft’s fall roadmap for Assassin’s Creed Shadows has three major dates. On October 28, title update 10 will target the parkour system, adding an Advanced Parkour option and reintroducing the directional catch ledge mechanic, among other tweaks. This update will also add a new Animus themed activity called Corrupted Castles. Then, on November 25, Ubisoft will roll out a third story drop and a surprise collaboration. The new quest is called “A Puzzlement” and it’s sillier in tone than Shadows itself, “much more akin to something like AC Odyssey,” according to developers. In it, Naoe will learn a version of Yasuke’s war kick ability, and Yasuke will discover how to sneak-stun enemies. On December 2, the Switch 2 release caps off the roadmap.The Claws of Awaji expansion brought more than 10 hours of new content to Assassin’s Creed Shadows in September, introducing new weapons, abilities, gear, enemy factions, bosses and story beats, plus a fresh region to explore. This will all come to the Switch 2 version of the game later in 2026.Assassin’s Creed Shadows debuted on PC, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on March 20, 2025, and it’s a welcome bright spot in Ubisoft’s library. The studio recently released Star Wars Outlaws on Switch 2 and the consensus seems to be that it runs surprisingly well.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/assassins-creed-shadows-will-hit-switch-2-on-december-2-172338735.html?src=rss
