Ubisoft has responded to yesterday’s leak that showcased a selection of free battle pass rewards purportedly set to be available via Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ upcoming Animus Hub.

As Eurogamer reported yesterday, these leaked Assassin’s Creed Shadows images showed a similar selection of items to those previously offered through daily and weekly missions via Ubisoft Connect. That said, Assassin’s Creed has never offered a battle pass before, and the publisher is still to announce how any new battle pass system for the franchise will work.

In a message posted today on social media that seemed targeted at those taking a less nuanced response to the idea of Assassin’s Creed adding a battle pass, Ubisoft said it wanted to “clarify” the matter.

“All the rewards available in the Animus Hub will be entirely free, there are no paid subscriptions or paid battle pass featured in the Animus Hub, and players will have access to regular content [and] missions at no extra cost,” Ubisoft confirmed.

Ubisoft said it would unveil more details “closer to the launch of Assassin’s Creed Shadows” in February 2025.

At a BAFTA event attended by Eurogamer in London earlier this month, franchise boss Marc-Alexis Coté went into more detail on how the series will handle its modern day narrative in future, after admitting it had been a “struggle” to remain consistent since the departure of the series’ initial protagonist Desmond.

For more from Coté, you can read Eurogamer’s reports on how the Assassin’s Creed boss addressed Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ creative backlash, and Ubisoft’s decision to delay Shadows and restore confidence in its ability to launch quality games.
