Back to the Animus

In an article published on its official page, Ubisoft clarified that Assassin’s Creed Shadows does not meet the minimum PC requirements necessary to run on Steam Deck. In the section dedicated to technical questions, the company explained that the game has been labeled as Not Compatible in Valve’s rating system, which means it will not be able to run on the Steam Deck in its current state. This designation implies that users can forget the possibility of exploring the Japanese lands through this portable console.

Despite this refusal, Ubisoft hinted that there might be an option for future compatibility through a patch, although no further details were provided. This raises hopes among fans who long to play on their device of choice.

On the other hand, the title does not skimp on technical ambitions, allowing for an impressive visual experience on next-generation consoles. Assassin’s Creed Shadows will offer gameplay at 60 FPS and 4K resolution on PS5 and Xbox Series X, incorporating advanced technologies such as ray tracing, which will enable global illumination and more realistic visual effects. This promises to enhance immersion in the narrative of Naoe and Yasuke, the protagonists of this installment.

46 new achievements to dust off the game

The implementation of achievements allows players to earn rewards by completing various challenges, such as freeing prisoners and capturing settlements. A total of 46 achievements are available, including standard challenges and more specific ones, like throwing a harpoon at a narwhal or freeing 300 British prisoners of war. Additionally, those who have already played Rogue on Steam will receive these achievements automatically, which could encourage a new wave of players on the platform.

The announcement of the achievements comes at a strategic time, as the launch of Assassin’s Creed Shadows approaches, scheduled for March 20. This new title will take players to 16th century Japan, promising to add a new dimension to the franchise. Despite the controversy surrounding several Assassin’s Creed titles, the interest in exploring new narratives and historical contexts seems to be on the rise.

With this update, Steam aims to revitalize interest in Assassin’s Creed Rogue, which could mean an opportunity for both new players and veterans to return to the gaming experience, now with the added appeal of achievements.
