Assassin’s Creed Shadows introduces a new battle pass type feature that you can unlock and progress through as you go further in the story. Luckily, this is actually completely free and will only require you to play the game in order to earn all of the rewards. In this guide, we will show you how to unlock The Legacy anomalies to help you level it up.

How to Unlock the Legacy Anomalies

Simply put, you just need to progress a little further into the main story in order to unlock it. You really do not have to play too much to get it, as it is something you can engage with extremely early in the game’s story.

Now, all you need to do is complete the following quests, which you will go through in the following order if you choose to do it all in one go:
