Studio Offers Steam Collectibles for Assassin’s Creed Shadows

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is all set to be launched to Steam on March 20. Once the game goes live, players have the chance to obtain collectible virtual trading cards, badges, emoticons, and even background images. All of these are exclusive to the platform.

Here are the collectibles:

• 9 trading cards based on Naoe, Yasuke, Junjiro, and the six recruitable allies

• 6 versions of the badges based on the Assassin's Creed Shadows crest, including a foiled version

• 5 emoticons: Naoe’s hood, Yasuke’s helmet, a torii gate, a kunai, and a katana

• 6 background images for the Steam profile

To earn these collectibles, all players need to do is play the game. However, they'll only be able to earn half of what is available. To complete the set, they'll need to trade with friends and even fellow players. Once they have the full set, players can then use the trading cards to craft game badges, emoticons, and backgrounds, all of which can be displayed on their Steam profile.
