Assassin's Creed Shadows has suffered another setback, with the cancellation of its early access shocking fans worldwide.

To compensate for the loss of the early access period, the cost is being reduced: Instead of going for $280 as it was originally priced, the collector's edition will sell for $230—a pretty deep cut for what I would say is a relatively minor loss.

Ultimately, Assassin’s Creed Shadows still has the potential to close out 2024 with a bang despite its delay. While there are still many questions surrounding the game, particularly in regard to the rumored LEAGUE mode, the possibility of co-op offers a compelling reason for fans to stay engaged with the game as its launch date approaches.
