Assassin's Creed Shadows' final content update brings new story tying directly into Black Flag Resynced, but it's bigger than that

With Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced right around the corner and Codename Hexe still brewing (mostly) in secret, Ubisoft is finally saying goodbye to last year's Assassin's Creed Shadows. Its very last content update has now been released, and while its focus is on wrapping up Naoe and Yasuke's storyline, it's a big one, leading directly into next month's pirate remake.

Assassin's Creed Shadows' final update adds one last story mission and a wearable Black Flag Resynced advert

Mostly decent open-world ninja sim Assassin’s Creed Shadows is getting its last big update today, as Ubisoft begin the process of shooing players away from the year-old RPG and towards the gleaming, nipple-adding newness of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced.

'Tis the seasons. One of the best things about Assassin's Creed Shadows — and in our opinion, one of the most overlooked — is the game's extremely detailed weather system. It's easily one of the best in the biz. We suppose that it's the kind of thing many players won't even pay proper attention to, but Ubisoft really did create something special with Shadows' massive open world, and how it changes with both day-to-day weather and overarching seasons.
