On Thursday, details about the Assassin’s Creed Animus Hub surfaced online, thanks to a leaker. The leak showed a battle pass for the game that included various cosmetics and even unlockable pets.
This has led to speculation about what could be included in the Battle Pass and Animus as a whole. As rumors continued to swirl about the possibility of paid add-on content within the hub, Ubisoft decided it would be best to address the claims.
In a post on the game’s official subreddit, community manager Ubi_Waldo clarified a few details about the Animus Hub and what players can expect from the offering.

He then clarified that all rewards from the Animus Hub are “completely free.” He also said that “players will be able to access regular content and missions at no additional cost.” Lastly, the Animus Hub has “no paid subscriptions or paid battle passes.”
He concluded his remarks by saying that there will be more details about what the Animus Hub will offer as we get closer to the release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
