Assassin's Creed Shadows will overhaul stealth mechanics, but still include insta-kill assassination option

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set to overhaul stealth mechanics for both its dual protagonists, but will also include an option to allow insta-kill assassinations on all enemies.

Last week images leaked appearing to show free battle pass rewards, something not seen before in an Assassin’s Creed game.

That’s because stronger enemies can completely deny assassination attempts, as detailed in a new blog post from Ubisoft.
