Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Dead by Daylight Join Forces in a Newly Announced Colab
Ubisoft has announced a surprising new collaboration for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, teaming up with the popular horror game Dead by Daylight. The news was revealed through the official Assassin’s Creed account on X, catching fans by surprise.
The collaboration will officially launch on May 27. In the announcement, Ubisoft teased the crossover with the words, “Step into the Fog. A new Dead by Daylight quest begins. Slip through the shadows. Survive the ordeal.” This mysterious message hints at the thrilling and eerie atmosphere players can expect.
While Ubisoft hasn’t revealed the full details of what this collaboration will include, the teaser gave fans a glimpse of what’s to come. The short video showed a mysterious character surrounded by red flames, staring ominously at the two main characters from Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Naoe and Yasuke.
The unsettling atmosphere and dark visuals suggest that the collaboration will bring a spooky twist to the usual Assassin’s Creed gameplay.
This crossover between the stealth and action of Assassin’s Creed and the horror elements of Dead by Daylight promises to be an interesting mix. Fans are already speculating about what kind of quests, skins, or game modes might be introduced as part of this collaboration.
Fans of Assassin’s Creed Shadows have been waiting for this announcement for a while. Ubisoft had hinted at a special collaboration in their Year 1 roadmap released last month, and now it’s finally happening. At that time, the developers had promised that the collaboration would take place in late May, and they are delivering right on schedule.
Alongside the collaboration, Assassin’s Creed Shadows will also receive some exciting new updates. A parkour update will introduce new moves, including height-gaining back ejects, height-gaining side ejects, and a vertical ledge jump. These improvements will make navigating the game’s world even more dynamic and fluid. Additionally, a photo mode update will be released, allowing players to capture stunning moments from the game.
This month, players were also treated to a free quest as part of the game’s ongoing updates. The quest offered new challenges and rewards, keeping the community engaged while waiting for the collaboration.
