Story Drops is a downloadable content expansion pack for Assassin's Creed: Shadows. It consists of a number of free episodes released at regular intervals, providing new quests featuring new and familiar characters.

Description

These new free quests will introduce new player abilities, new allies, new world activities, and provide deeper looks and backstories for some of your favorite characters, each new piece of content expanding on the main game.[1]

Episodes

The Works of Luis Frois

An encounter with Luís Fróis at a Jesuit Mission turns into an opportunity to help an old friend. Retrieve lost notes, protect Lady Satoko, and learn more about the Jesuits in this new Free Story Pack playable with both Naoe or Yasuke.[2]

A Critical Encounter

Rufino, an old friend of Tomiko and Heiji, calls in a life debt after uncovering a deadly conspiracy. While working as a translator, he discovered evidence that a secretive organization has been hiring assassins to eliminate influential commoners.[3]

A Puzzlement

Naoe and Yasuke encounter two old acquaintances having a loud argument about a mysterious door in south Wakasa. They task our protagonists with figuring out how to open it.[4]

Black Tides

A new threat washes ashore! Two elite-level Templars known as "Black Cross" are called to Japan to hunt Naoe and Yasuke for all the trouble they have caused. But as is often the case with the Templar Order, those Black Cross may have additional goals of their own: It's up to our two protagonists to prevent them from acquiring whatever they seek—and manage to stay alive...[5]
