At the same time, Ubisoft is saying goodbye to the previously used Season Pass model with more expensive editions for a few days’ advance access and cosmetic items as well as exclusive missions for pre-orderers. This was also planned for “Assassin’s Creed Shadows”, but Ubisoft has already annoyed fans with a similar strategy for “Star Wars Outlaws”. Instead, the games company promises that all buyers will be able to play it at the same time on 14 February. Pre-orders would receive the first expansion pack free of charge.
