Ubisoft has unveiled new details about the combat and progression systems in Assassin's Creed Shadows. Game director Charles Benoit shed light on character development, loot, and weapon variety.

The game boasts a dual progression system: mastery points and knowledge points. Mastery points are earned through leveling up and defeating challenging enemies, while knowledge points are acquired by completing missions and discovering items. These points unlock new abilities and enhance weapons.

Each weapon features its own unique upgrade tree, enabling players to craft personalized builds. Players can freely reset their progress to experiment with different strategies and weapon combinations. Each weapon offers distinct bonuses, catering to various combat scenarios. For instance, legendary weapons like the naginata allow players to counter otherwise insurmountable attacks that other weapons can't deflect.

Assassin's Creed Shadows' combat system encourages diverse approaches, though stealthy eliminations remain an option. As characters develop, additional stat upgrades unlock, further refining player skills. The developers emphasize that mastering all techniques and upgrades will require a substantial time commitment.

Assassin's Creed Shadows launches March 20th for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Players can anticipate a deep and engaging experience blending stealth, combat, and strategic progression.
