There, alongside Yasuke, she will confront the dangerous Sanzoku Ippa, a ruthless faction threatening the island’s peace. During their new voyage on the mysterious island of Awaji, players will discover vibrant cities and stunning maritime landscapes, but they will need to stay sharp as ambushes and traps soon make it clear that they are far from welcome on Awaji.

Claws of Awaji adds a plethora of new content to Assassin’s Creed Shadows, including new skills, weapon abilities, armor, and gear for both Naoe and Yasuke, all of which can carry over to the main game. These upgrades will give players the edge they need to take on Awaji’s deadliest foes, including new enemy types and uniquely challenging bosses.

Agile and fast, the Bo is built for fluid combos and creative attacks, striking multiple enemies in quick succession. Claws of Awaji players will have access to Legendary Bo staves coming with unique engravings, only available on the Awaji Island.

The Claws of Awaji expansion comes after months of post launch support, with several features being added, such as the New Game+ or the new Nightmare difficulty mode. The latest update, released on September 11, introduced community-requested quality-of-life improvements, including the ability to fast-forward time and automatically clear the fog from a region’s map once all synchronization points have been completed.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is available on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation®5, macOS® the Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Store on Windows PC, Amazon Luna and Ubisoft’s subscription service, Ubisoft+.*. For those new to Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the game is now available for up to 40% off at the Ubisoft Store and other platforms.

With development led by Ubisoft Quebec **, Assassin’s Creed Shadows offers players a captivating journey through the turbulent era of feudal Japan. Step into the dual roles of Naoe, a stealthy shinobi Assassin, and Yasuke, a powerful samurai warrior, each with distinct playstyles and abilities. Experience dynamic combat with a variety of weapons, including the Katana, Naginata, and more, and master stealth tactics, infiltration, and open confrontation. Explore a richly detailed world shaped by political unrest, shifting alliances, and personal vendettas. Every decision, from combat to dialogue, can influence the fate of those around you and the legacy you leave behind.

To celebrate the launch, a brand new trailer has been released, offering players a detailed look at the game’s vibrant towns, complete with quaint shopfronts, bustling plazas, and cheerful citizens. The trailer also highlights core gameplay features such as population happiness and economic growth, which evolve organically as players add new amenities to their expanding towns.

“We’re incredibly excited to release Town to City! The creativity shown by our demo and beta players has been truly inspiring, and with the community’s feedback we’ve made the game even better. I can’t wait to see what players will build when the game is out, and to keep improving it together!” said Joost van Dongen, Game Director of Town to City.

Town to City is available on Steam for $24.99, €24.99 and £21.99 with an introductory 10% discount in the first week.

About Town to City

Break free of the grid in Town to City: a cosy city builder that invites you to create a beautiful and bustling community. Freely place houses, shops, and amenities and natural elements to delight your residents and encourage new families to move in. As your population grows, so can your ambitions: create multiple towns that can grow alone or thrive together, helping the whole region develop and prosper.

In the campaign or sandbox mode, you’re free to build at your own pace, placing each flower bed with pixel precision or prioritising growing your economy and developing your town into a thriving city.

Shape Your City

Truly grid-less building sets you free to lay out your town however you like. Plan out carefully-ordered rows of houses and city districts, or grow outwards organically with residences, amenities, parks and plazas connected by winding streets and alleys.

Unleash Your Creativity

Beautify your settlement to your heart’s content with a plethora of customisation options. Set up lighting, plant flowers and wooded parks, and decorate houses and buildings to complement or contrast. With gorgeous voxel graphics as a base, it’s easy to create something beautiful you’ll want to capture with the in-game photo mode.

Nurture Your Community

As your town flourishes, you’ll need to meet the needs of your growing population. Provide amenities that will cater for everyone – from farmers and workers to artisans and the bourgeoisie – alongside specific requests by individual residents. Get to know each person as they arrive in town and watch them settle down to form new families in the homes you built for them.

Grow Your Economy

Assign workers to jobs, research new buildings and decorations, and boost your sleepy settlement into a bustling center of commerce. As you expand beyond the bounds of your first town, you’ll pursue new developments in farming and tourism by building new towns, all connected by trade and travel routes.

Multiplayer Bluffing game Cut That Wire amasses over 50,000 wishlists since Steam Page launch

Victim, Engineer or Imposter – Deception Decides Your Fate

Bangkok, Thailand, September 16th, 2025 – Small independent developer Waka Studio has announced today that their latest indie title Cut That Wire, a multiplayer bluffing and deception party game, has already racked up 50,000 wishlists after launching their Steam page on September 4th! Play together with friends to deactivate bombs strapped to your chest, whilst working out who is secretly the imposter conniving against you!

In Cut That Wire, you’re strapped to a bomb in a room with three others where one is secretly the imposter. Every ally could save you or seal your fate. Victims must unmask the traitor, whilst the imposter bluffs, deceives and manipulates to survive. Each round cranks up the pressure with “Big Bluff” mini-games: sketch from prompts in ‘Big Bluff Drawing’, recall details in ‘Big Bluff Picture’, or swap cards in ‘Big Bluff Deck’ – while the imposter scrambles to stay convincing with mismatched information.

When the mini-games end, the real danger begins. After each game, players vote on who must cut a wire, then that chosen player must flip a coin to decide if they are cutting their own or someone else’s wire. Only the Engineer, a victim with a unique power, knows the one safe choice, while the imposter pushes the group towards fatal mistakes. With the bomb’s timer always ticking, every word and every glance could mean survival… or detonation.

“We’re absolutely thrilled that Cut That Wire has surpassed 50,000 wishlists – honestly, it’s more than we ever imagined,” said Pisorn and Jirawat Chungviwatanant at Waka Studio. “As a very small team, every wishlist feels like a huge vote of confidence in our work. Seeing so many players excited for our game is both surprising and incredibly motivating!”
