A new weapon pack inspired by the same group's universe will be acquirable. It includes a Tanto and Katana for Naoe, and a Kanabo and Teppo for Yasuke.

Nightmare Difficulty

Nightmare is a new difficulty just above Expert. Thus, it will become the hardest mode, impacting both combat and stealth. For example, parry timing is stricter, enemies will be faster, smarter, and stronger.

Toggling headgear

A highly requested quality-of-life feature added with Assassin’s Creed Shadows Title Update 1.0.6 is a headgear toggle. This allows players to choose whether helmets or other gear will be visible during cutscenes (some scenes will override this setting).

UI customizations

Another important addition is VFX customizations. It includes many options that allow players to further customize their UI VFX.

Open-world alarm system

Shadows will implement something similar to a notoriety system. Repeatedly attacking civilians or military units outside of castles will trigger an alarm. It will cause a group of guardians to hunt you.

Horse camera presets

When riding on a mount, players can choose between three different camera types. Simply hold the d-pad down button on consoles/"X" on PC.

Ultra Low graphics preset

AC Shadows has introduced the Ultra Low graphics preset. This will allow gamers with a build that comes just below the "Low" preset to enjoy the game at 1080p 30FPS.

The Assassin’s Creed Shadows Title Update 1.0.6 also includes a number of bug fixes.
