The creative director of Assassin's Creed Shadows says that the decision to feature two distinct characters is part of the Assassin's Creed fandom's desire for two different types of main character.

With almost two months until Assassin's Creed Shadows is set to launch, Ubisoft has already revealed details about its first expansion. The upcoming Assassin's Creed Shadows DLC is titled Claws of Awaji, bringing over 10 hours of additional content to the game.

Not every player can experience video games in the same way, especially if they have impairments. That's why Ubisoft is laying out the accessibility options that are included in Assassin's Creed Shadows, which may open some doors for players who might otherwise feel excluded.
