Assassin's Creed Shadows Won't Get Second DLC Expansion

"Any content we want to do in Year Two will probably be more sparse, not a drip-feed... but chunkier updates that shake things up a little more. I'm not announcing anything at this point, but our strategy for Year One was to be quick and reactive, so it means smaller drops often, but for Year Two we don't need to put fires out or anything,"

"Claws of Awaji was originally meant to be a paid expansion, but Ubisoft shifted gears by giving it away for free to make up for Shadows' delay. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot recently revealed that Shadows was pushed back because of the backlash against the game. That backlash was largely centered on the game's male protagonist, Yasuke, a Black samurai who was inspired by a real historical figure."

Ubisoft confirmed that there is no Year Two expansion on the scale of Claws of Awaji for Assassin's Creed Shadows. Post-launch support will continue but focus on fewer, larger content drops rather than a season-pass-style full DLC or frequent small drops. Claws of Awaji launched as the first expansion and was given away for free after Shadows' delay; it had originally been planned as a paid expansion. Shadows' release was delayed amid backlash centered on protagonist Yasuke. Naoe and Yasuke appear together in a free limited-time mission despite the absence of another full-length expansion.
