Despite the recent delay of Assassin's Creed shadow to February 14th, 2025, there's a glimmer of good news for fans eager for a multiplayer experience. Known insider Tom Henderson reports that Ubisoft is developing a co-op mode for shadow, slated to arrive as a post-launch update.

Codenamed "LEAGUE," the co-op mode has reportedly been in development for some time, meaning it wasn't a factor in the game's delay. Details about the mode's gameplay and features remain scarce for now.

Henderson also points to the rumored Assassin's Creed Invictus, a multiplayer-focused title expected to release sometime next year. Invictus promises a distinctly different experience from other games in the series, potentially featuring arcade-style gameplay with modes like free-for-all and team deathmatch.

Previous leaks from @xj0nathan suggest that Invictus will incorporate maps inspired by past Assassin's Creed games and feature iconic playable characters like Ezio and Cesare Borgia.

The addition of a co-op mode to shadow and the potential release of Invictus could signal a renewed focus on multiplayer experiences within the Assassin's Creed franchise, potentially reigniting interest from fans who have been disappointed with recent single-player entries.
