Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Nintendo Switch 2 gets support for keyboard and mouse

Ubisoft is rolling out a new update for Assassin's Creed Shadows to consoles and PCs, and among the new features it brings is a new way to play the game on the Nintendo Switch 2. The update also brings a handful of bug fixes to the game.

The update arrives as version 1.1.10 and should be available to everyone already. For the Nintendo Switch 2, the file size is 5.4GB, which is small when compared to the 17.46GB and 14.66GB file sizes for the Xbox Series S|X and PC.

According to the changelog, the update adds support for playing with a mouse and keyboard on the Nintendo Switch 2. Owners can connect the peripherals of their choice to the USB ports on the dock and play the game. This feature is also available on the PS5 and Xbox versions of the game.

In addition to keyboard and mouse support on the Nintendo Switch 2, the update also brings PSSR 2 support to the PS5 Pro version of the game.

Ubisoft also mentions that players can also find a non-legendary Bo weapon even if they don't have the Claws of Awaji DLC. All they have to do is explore the shadows of Feudal Japan, and once they have earned at least one Unique Bo, the non-legendary versions will be dropped by defeated enemies, found in chests, or available at merchants.

Assassin's Creed Shadows is available as a digital download and as a physical purchase for the Nintendo Switch 2. As at the time of writing, the physical copy is available on Amazon for $38.75 ($27.12 with coupon), more than 50% off its list price.
