As we enter the final months of 2025, several exciting game releases are hitting consoles, and among the surprises is **Assassin’s Creed Shadows** coming to the Nintendo Switch 2.
Ubisoft recently announced that the new, Japan-based installment of Assassin’s Creed will be available on Nintendo’s newly launched console. Fans can look forward to playing **Assassin’s Creed Shadows** on the Switch 2 starting December 2, 2025.
One of the standout features announced is cross-progression support. This means if you have save files from other platforms such as PC, PS5, or Xbox Series X/S, you’ll be able to continue your game exactly where you left off on the Switch 2. This seamless experience allows players to jump into the game without restarting their progress.
**Assassin’s Creed Shadows** initially launched earlier this year and received positive reviews. At Shacknews, writer Aiden O’Brien praised it as a “beautifully realized world with fun combat” and highlighted the interesting dynamic between the characters Yasuke and Naoe.
The game quickly became one of the fastest-selling titles in the Assassin’s Creed series, achieving an impressive milestone by selling over 1 million units within its first day of release.
With its upcoming release on the Nintendo Switch 2, both new players and series veterans have more reasons to dive into this captivating adventure later this year.
