Assassin’s Creed Odyssey – Legacy of the First Blade Episode 2 Available Now

Shadow Heritage, the second episode of the Legacy of the First Blade post-launch story arc for Assassin's Creed Odyssey, is out now on all platforms. Adding a new adventure set amid the shipyards and clifftop fortresses of the Achaia region, it pits Alexios or Kassandra against the naval might of The Tempest, a warlord who plans to dominate the region by wielding a weapon centuries ahead of its time.

Available to players who've finished the first episode, Hunted, and reached at least level 28, Shadow Heritage adds a new Hunter ability, Rapid Fire, which lets players quickly shoot arrows with no reloading for as long as their adrenaline meter holds out. It's also a chance to add a new weapon to the Adrestia: the fearsome Chimera's Breath, a pair of prow-mounted flamethrowers whose plans you'll need to steal out from under The Tempest's nose. For a deeper look at what to expect in Shadow Heritage, see the video above and check out our full preview.

The three-episode Legacy of the First Blade arc is available as part of the Season Pass, or as a separate purchase for owners of Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Season Pass owners will also get access to a second upcoming story arc, The Fate of Atlantis, as well as Assassin's Creed III Remastered and Assassin's Creed Liberation Remastered, both due in March.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is available now for Xbox One, PS4, and PC. For more on the game, check out our previous Assassin's Creed Odyssey coverage.
