[QUOTE="Admin, post: 69559, member: 1"] [IMG]https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2024/05/15/ac-red-blog-1715782894354.jpg[/IMG] Ubisoft will launch its final [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/assassins-creed-shadows']Assassin's Creed Shadows[/URL] update of the year this week, ahead of the game's arrival on Nintendo Switch 2. Included in Title Update 1.1.7 are a set of brutal-looking new finishers to spice up Naoe and Yasuke's combat (there's some brutal-looking new moves in there). For fans following Shadows' typically-bizarre Animus content, this week brings a new Rift to explore as the mysterious Guide seeks players' help once again. And there's another new battle pass-like Project to work through, unlocking a fresh bo staff, as well as an outfit for Naoe (sadly, no more cats or Ezio costumes this time). One useful tweak is the ability to access your Vault content — those text logs with modern day story — without fully quitting the game and heading to the Animus desktop, which was a faff. You'll also be able to exchange Animus keys for more Gold, Mastery and Knowledge Points, should be be needing any more of those. The above improvements come in addition to a long list of bug fixes and other changes, including some launch day updates for Assassin's Creed Shadows' Nintendo Switch 2 edition (that arrives this Wednesday, December 17). Here are the rest of those changes in full: [HEADING=1]Assassin's Creed Shadows Title Update 1.1.7 — Bug fixes & Improvements patch notes:[/HEADING] [HEADING=2]Nintendo Switch 2[/HEADING] [LIST] [*]Improved various FPS issues.

[*]Perks with affliction effects now have dynamic wording that specify which affliction they apply, based on the item they are engraved on.
