Ubisoft’s open-world action-RPG Assassin’s Creed Shadows got the latest massive title update 1.0.7. It contains a number of new additions, including the long-requested New Game+, Knowledge Rank & Level Cap increase, balance adjustments, bug fixes, and more.
You can start a New Game+ playthrough from the Memory Menu in the Animus after finishing all journeys of Naoe, Yasuke and Junjiro. That will allow you to start playing from the beginning while keeping all collected skills, gear, Allies and hideout progression from your first playthrough. Note that with each new venture into New Game+, you will face stronger foes, more demanding challenges, and tests of your Shinobi and Samurai skills.
The developers have also raised the level cap from 60 to 80 and expanded the Knowledge Rank system to 9 & 10, allowing players to unlock and develop a broader array of skills, passives, and combat techniques.
Assassin’s Creed: Shadows – Update 1.0.7 Additions Include:
- Removed a performance warning on MacBook Air when using M4 following improved support.
- Fixed an error in Photo Mode where the “Show UI” prompt was visible in preview mode, affecting players taking screenshots with their native systems.
- Individual items will now have their dedicated page within the store.
- Katsuhime no longer vanishes from the hideout after the previous 1.0.5 fix for the breakup bug.
- Adjusted the number of Mon received from trading. Purchasing items costs less, whereas selling items gives more.
- Increased the number of resources gained from dismantling items.
- Slightly increased the amount of crafting materials needed to upgrade items.
- Rebalanced the end of season chest rewards and increased the quantity of crafting materials and Hideout resources given.
- The Radial Effect upgrade in Yasuke’s Teppo tree had its base damage increased from 25% to 50%, and its damage is now also further increased by other Armor Buster upgrades.
