Assassin's Creed Shadows may get expanded in the future with a multiplayer mode, judging from some recent discoveries.
As reported on X by game modder Sliderv2, the game's current version features, inside its Bootstrap file, a mention of a few developer test maps for multiplayer and PVP. This not only gives more credibility to some earlier rumors that suggested the new entry in the series would feature multiplayer in some form, but also suggests that it could still be coming at some point in the future, especially considering the game has yet to receive any major new feature as some of its predecessors did after launch.

Regarding content, however, Assassin's Creed Shadows is not lacking, as the game is full of side activities to complete as Naoe and Yasuke further their war against the Shinbakufu. While the game is not on par with the best open-world RPG available on the market, it is a solid and enjoyable game, and one of the best entries in the series, as I highlighted in my review.
Assassin's Creed Shadows is one of the finest entries in the series, successfully bringing back stealth-oriented gameplay while retaining the RPG mechanics and refined combat mechanics seen in previous entries in the series, seamlessly integrating them with the dual protagonist setup and a well-paced story that doesn't overstay its welcome. While the game still features way more content and gameplay systems than necessary, its rendition of Feudal Japan is among the best ever seen in a video game, and it is well worth experiencing for the vast majority of players.
Assassin's Creed Shadows is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S worldwide.
