All Assassin’s Creed Shadows Trophies Can Be Obtained in One Playthrough

Ubisoft has revealed that all of the trophies and achievements in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Shadows can be acquired in one playthrough. This is great news for players who like to 100% their games as many titles tend to lock certain hard-to-earn trophies behind multiple playthroughs or higher difficulties.

Ubisoft recently revealed the full list of obtainable trophies and achievements for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, confirming that you won’t need to play both characters to obtain every trophy. The game offers players the choice to play as either Naoe, a female shinobi, or Yasuke, a samurai. However, it’s not required to play as both of them to earn every trophy or achievement in the game as you can get them all by playing as one character, if that’s what you prefer.

Ubisoft revealed:

“Available on day one, these Steam achievements (which are the same as the Xbox achievements and PlayStation trophies) can all be earned in a single playthrough, meaning no achievement can be missed regardless of what story choices you make. And don’t worry – your Leap of Fail will look just as spectacular whether you’re playing on story mode or on expert level, as all achievements are unlockable regardless of difficulty level.”
