The '''Animus Hub''' is the interface for the hacked [[Animus|Animus EGO]].<ref name="EGO Welcome">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'' – [[Database: EGO WELCOME ONBOOT (CORRUPTED)|Database: EGO WELCOME ONBOOT <nowiki>[CORRUPTED]</nowiki>]]</ref> After the hack, the [[Animus EGO user|user]] had access to four different sections: Memories, Projects, Exchange, and Vault.<ref name="Shadows">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]''</ref><ref name="AC4R">''[[Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced]]''</ref>

==Memories==
[[File:Animus Hub Memories symbol.png|thumb|125px|The symbol for the Memories section]]
The Memories section featured a timeline and allowed access to the [[Genetic memory|memories]] of a few other [[Animus host]]s. Other years were marked down without any associated memory streams, though they did align with the memory start dates of other known hosts' memories.<ref name="Shadows"/><ref name="AC4R"/>

==Projects==
[[File:Animus Hub Projects symbol.png|thumb|125px|The symbol for the Projects section]]
The Projects section contained missions meant to achieve greater [[synchronization]] and correct the simulation in many small ways, such as by eliminating anomalies. These missions rewarded [[Animus data fragment|data fragments]] that could be redeemed for keys to be spent in the Exchange section, decryption of files in the Vault section, as well as for [[Animus mod|mods]] that would add [[gold]] and gear to the simulation for the Animus hosts to use.<ref name="Shadows"/><ref name="AC4R"/>

==Exchange==
[[File:Animus Hub Exchange symbol.png|thumb|125px|The symbol for the Exchange section]]
The Exchange section allowed the user to trade in keys, currency collected both through the Projects and inside the Animus hosts' memories, for various items to be added to the simulation, such as weapons, armor, and outfits for them<ref name="AC4R"/> and any potential allies.<ref name="Shadows"/>
{{-}}

==Vault==
[[File:Animus Hub Vault symbol.png|thumb|125px|The symbol for the Vault section]]
The Vault section compiled various data files, mimicking the [[database]] function existent in other [[Animus|Animi]] sessions, and was separate from the "Codex" that the EGO user first saw when reliving the [[samurai]] Yasuke and the ''[[Ninja|kunoichi]]'' Fujibayashi Naoe's joint memories of [[Sengoku period|Sengoku era]] [[Japan]]. The Vault's files started out encrypted and were decrypted both by completing Projects and by interacting with [[rifts]] during the session, with these particular files transcribing conversations with the artificial intelligences known as [[The Guide]] and [[Ego]].<ref name="Shadows"/>

==Behind the scenes==
[[File:AC Infinity start.jpg|thumb|250px|''Assassin's Creed: Infinity'' teaser image]]
The Animus Hub, originally known as '''''Assassin's Creed: Infinity''''', was expected to be a separate live-service platform that would host the modern day storyline and span multiple titles, including ''[[Assassin's Creed: Codename Hexe]]'' and ''[[Assassin's Creed: Codename Invictus]]''.<ref>{{Ubisoft|text=Welcome to the Animus Hub - Your New Home for Assassin's Creed Games|url=en-us/game/assassins-creed/news/6yQywqDB4bRmLtXp3K0pbd/welcome-to-the-animus-hub-your-new-home-for-assassins-creed-games|archivedate=20250123180226}}</ref> With the release of ''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]'', the Hub was discovered to be an integral part of the game and inaccessible without that particular title.
