Assassin's Creed Shadows features advanced melting snow effects

Assassin's Creed Shadows has launched, impressing gamers with its detailed open world. One standout feature is how snow melts in real time when the sun comes out after a storm. This effect creates a feeling of life in the game's environment. A player highlighted this detail on Twitter. They showed how, as temperatures rise, snow gradually disappears from trees and the ground. The visuals look stunning and have excited fans. Red Dead Redemption 2 is often praised for its rich details, like realistic weather effects. A former Rockstar developer explained that hidden features enhance player experience, keeping the game engaging long after release. It remains to be seen if Shadows can hold players' interest in the same way. Early reviews suggest it has beautiful scenery that players will want to explore for hours. Additionally, Shadows launched with a patch to reduce violence in shrines, preventing damage to furniture. Players are eager to see how it compares to other Assassin's Creed titles.
