Patch Highlights

New Game+

New Game+ is coming to Assassin’s Creed Shadows!

Upon completing the main story on any difficulty, start a new game while keeping all collected skills, gear, Allies and hideout progression from your first playthrough. You can start a New Game+ playthrough from the Memory Menu in the Animus after finishing all journeys of Naoe, Yasuke, and Junjiro.

Upon completing a New Game+ playthrough, you’ll be awarded Whisper of Gold, and Dragon’s Gold! Brand new gold-plated Legendary Long Katana and Legendary Katana with their own unique perk engravings.

Take your journey through Feudal Japan to the next level as many times as you want… or at least up to 8 times with New Game+! With each new venture into New Game+, face stronger foes, more demanding challenges, and tests of your Shinobi and Samurai skills.

Knowledge Rank and Level Cap Increase

Prepare to push beyond your limits! We’ve raised the level cap from 60 to 80, meaning tougher foes with enhanced tactics and awareness – demanding sharper reflexes and smarter strategies.

To meet this rising threat, we’ve also expanded the Knowledge Rank system to 9 & 10, allowing players to unlock and develop a broader array of skills, passives, and combat techniques to become even more masterful.

New Game+ awaits! But before taking on the task of a new journey, you can upgrade the passives and skills of Naoe and Yasuke! Players will gain 1 new rank for multiple nodes in their Mastery Skills, and 10 new ranks for all existing Knowledge passives to become even more formidable.

A test of your skills is no match without the right gear! The Forge can now be upgraded to level 4, allowing players to upgrade all weapons and gear to level 80 to have the edge on the rising threats that await.

With new levels and ranks, come three new achievements and trophies waiting to be unlocked:

  • Enjoy the Ride: Reach Level 80
  • Stars Unseen: Reach Knowledge Rank 10
  • Worth its Wait: Obtain the Gold Katana and Gold Long Katana (by completing the story on New Game+).
