New Game Plus in Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Confirmed?

If you're a fan of diving back into games with a fresh start but with all your hard-earned progress intact, you might be curious about whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* offers a New Game Plus feature. Let's dive into the details.

Does Assassin’s Creed Shadows Have New Game Plus?

The straightforward answer is no, *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not feature New Game Plus. To experience the story anew, you'll need to create a fresh save file and begin from the beginning, leaving behind all the items and equipment you acquired during your initial playthrough.

However, once you've rolled the credits and completed the main storyline, you're not done yet. The world of Feudal Japan remains open for you to explore. You can continue to complete any remaining side quests, hunt down legendary gear, engravings, and animals. There's a wealth of side content to engage with post-story, ensuring you can still enjoy the game without needing New Game Plus.

It's worth noting that *Shadows* doesn't offer multiple endings, and your dialogue choices don't significantly impact the narrative. Therefore, the motivation to replay the game through New Game Plus to explore different story paths is minimal. A single thorough playthrough should be enough to fully experience what *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* has to offer.

So, while there's no New Game Plus in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, the game still offers plenty to do after the main story. For more tips, information on how to redeem your pre-order bonuses, and a complete list of main quests, be sure to check out The Escapist.
