Stealth Just Got Tougher in Assassin’s Creed Shadows Expert Mode

AC Naoe Stealth

If you like your stealth gameplay a bit more intense, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is giving you exactly that.

In expert difficulty, enemies are way sharper; they will now spot you faster, even if you are sneaking around on rooftops. No more casual strolls above the city unnoticed.

They also work together better to track you down once you are detected, so escaping is not just about breaking line of sight anymore, because you will have to think ahead and stay hidden.

And that brings us to one of the more interesting details: “Vanishing” now requires you to move slowly in the shadows. That means you cannot just sprint into a dark corner and magically disappear. You will need to play it cool and stay quiet.

It sounds like expert mode is going to be a real challenge, especially for players who love sneaky, clean runs. If you enjoy the excitement of staying completely unseen, this is definitely going to raise the difficulty.
