Fans of the Assassin’s Creed series have found themselves puzzled over a free download offer for Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, ahead of its release on March 20. The game, the latest entry in Ubisoft’s popular series, has faced several delays but promises to deliver an engaging experience, according to early previews.
Set in a richly crafted world, Assassin’s Creed: Shadows introduces a new protagonist, Naoe, who is expected to become a fan favorite. Despite not radically changing the gameplay formula, early impressions suggest it could rival Assassin’s Creed Origins as one of the best games in the series.

Other fans have shared similar concerns, leading to confusion over the process. While the issue does not appear to be widespread, it is unclear why some players have not yet received their rewards.

As the launch date nears, players are advised to be patient, though the delay in sending out rewards has certainly raised questions within the Assassin’s Creed community.
