Assassin's Creed Shadows Roadmap Includes Major Update, A Parkour Challenge, And Switch 2 DLC https://ift.tt/vDXJKNa Ubisoft has released its roadmap for Assassin's Creed Shadows through to the end of March, showing off the game's next title update, a parkour challenge for players to compete in, and a release date for the game's DLC on Switch 2. The game's next title update lands on February 17--that's tomorrow--and will introduce three new additions to the game, all of them significant in their own way. The first is a detailed stats page, which can be accessed from the inventory, which will let you dig into all the stats relating to your loadout at a micro level.

Each one of Hi-Fi Rush's numerous boss fights is memorable for one reason or another (the scale and complexity of the final fight against Kale is as awe-inspiring as the first fast-paced duel with antagonist-turned-ally Korsica), but none come close to comparing with what might be the most adrenaline-fuelled three-phase fight of the year: Roquefort.

Like much of Hi-Fi Rush, Roquefort isn't memorable because of his outright challenge. The character-action presented in Tango Gameworks' latest pairs rhythm-based sensibilities with the flow of traditional character-action, equipped with an engaging scoring system that judges your aptitude at balancing both. Smart touches around each stage consistently remind you of the beat you need to keep when inputting presses for combos, while enemy attacks (mostly) adhere to the same beat, only breaking out in half-steps when trying to trip you up.
