Assassin's Creed Shadows come out very soon, and fans can pre-order right now to get the game at its cheapest price under £50.

Ubisoft has confirmed that Assassin's Creed Shadows players on Steam won't have to install the Ubisoft Connect Launcher to play the game. This will be great news for gamers who like all their games to be in one place, although there is still a small catch for Assassin's Creed Shadows.

Ubisoft has confirmed that Assassin's Creed Shadows will run on Steam Deck at launch, which is great albeit unexpected news. It's unexpected, because last month Ubisoft ruled out Steam Deck support, pointing out—quite reasonably—that Valve's handheld is " below our minimum specs for PC ".

Ubisoft, over Twitter/X, officially confirmed that Assassin's Creed Shadows will be supported on Steam Deck at launch. The post stated that Ubisoft is further waiting for Valve's certification of the game.

Assassin's Creed Shadows is shaping up to be massive in both scope and file size. While the official storage requirement hasn't been confirmed, an early listing on the Apple Store suggests the game will need around 123.2 GB of storage space. Ubisoft has also stated that an SSD will be required to run the game.

While graphical settings will be locked at launch, you’ll be able to choose the upscalers you want, and we’re looking into providing further options in future updates,” Ubisoft says. The game comes out on March 20th.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is a significantly shorter game that its predecessors, and that’s an important step that’ll hugely benefit the series.
