Things Are Finally Switching Up With Assassin’s Creed Shadows

Assassin’s Creed

Assassin’s Creed Shadows has now launched on the Switch 2, and we have a bit of fun seeing how Assassin’s Creed Shadows will run

Those looking to take their kills on the go with Assassin’s Creed Shadows can do that today, as the game has now launched on the Nintendo Switch 2. A day that I know some fans have been waiting for, and others waiting to see how Ubisoft will handle the port over to the new mobile console. A move that seems to allow players to keep the fun they might have had on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC ongoing. Even if this might have been one of the more divisive Assassin’s Creed titles in the more recent years, and for dumb reasons too. That is a story of a different day, though, as this one is all about how you can now add the game to the growing collection of killer titles on the Switch 2. Let us have a look at how it is going for the game.

There is a lot of hype about taking Assassin’s Creed Shadows on the go, which is what the following video for the announcement shows, but it is worth noting that the best version of the game will be when docked. Just like all of the other Switch 2 games, but any fan of the console will know that by now. This will just be a way to make sure that your fun does not have to end if you have to leave the house for any reason. Maybe, like going to those dreaded family gatherings during the holiday season. That way, you can take out some of that aggression with Naoe and Yasuke in this Assassin’s Creed instead of getting into a fight with those terrible relatives. That, or maybe it will give you something to show off and put others in their place. No matter the case, the game is now out there for you to pick up as soon as you are done reading all of these words and watching the following video.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows — Nintendo Switch 2 Launch

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is now out on Nintendo Switch 2!

Your journey through the breathtaking world of Feudal Japan begins today! Unleash your inner Assassin as Naoe, a stealthy shinobi, and strike from the shadows. Or take command as Yasuke, a towering samurai, and dominate the battlefield.

From chaos to purpose, from darkness to light. A new Creed rises over Japan.

Did you have to hold off on Assassin’s Creed Shadows until the Switch 2 release, or did you play the full game already out there? Will there be a better way to play the game down the line, or will this be the last major addition before we head into the next big release in the IP? What do you think the future will hold for it all, and will there be another long gap between releases so the teams can help reset after all of this? Let us have those thoughts in the comment section so we can all discuss them. If we have anything more for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, we will add it all to the site and share it on our social accounts.
