Assassin’s Creed Shadows boxed copies still require internet connection to first play
Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is the latest Ubisoft blockbuster to warn players they’ll need an online connection when first installing the game – despite the fact it is otherwise an offline title.
Shadows follows in the footsteps of last year’s Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and the upcoming Star Wars Outlaws in requiring an internet connection to first play physical copies of the game.
All three titles include a warning note on the front of their box, visible by retailers such as Best Buy: “Internet required to install the game.”
