Morgan has played six hours of Assassin’s Creed Shadows and officially announced he’s excited for it: his preview in January<\/a> made “a fantastic first impression.” I haven’t gotten my hands on Ubisoft’s next stabby stealth game yet, but as of today I’m extremely interested in one particular aspect of it: building and managing my base, or as Ubisoft calls it, my hideout.<\/p>\n

This week Ubisoft shone a light on the player hideouts in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and when I finally get to play the game this month I feel like this will be my 99% of focus. Sure, I know there are dudes in Japan who need to get neck-stabbed, and I will neck-stab them. I’ll run from guards and clamber up walls and do the whole eagle-screech-dive into piles of conveniently located hay.<\/p>\n

Mainly, though: I’m gonna be working on my hideout.<\/p>\n

Ubisoft says our hideouts will be set on “a little over one acre of fully customizable land” where we can place buildings and pavilions, decorate interiors and exteriors, create pathways, lay down trees, bushes, and ponds, and even populate the land with the best kind of animals: pettable <\/em>animals.<\/p>\n

You can see the blog post here<\/a>, but I’ve listed a few of my personal hideout highlights below:<\/p>\n
