On Thursday, details regarding the Assassin’s Creed Animus Hub made their way online thanks to a leaker. The leaks showed a Battle Pass for the game that included various cosmetics and even pets that could be unlocked.
This led to speculation about what else could be included in the Battle Pass and within Animus as a whole. After rumors continued to swirl about the possibility of paid extra content within the Hub, Ubisoft decided it was best to comment on the claims.
In a post on the game’s official subreddit, community manager Ubi_Waldo clarified some details about the Animus Hub and what players can expect from the offers.

“It has come to our attention that inaccurate rumors have been circulating online regarding the upcoming Animus Hub (ex-codename Infinity),” Ubi_Waldo said.
He then went on to clarify that all rewards in the Animus Hub will be “entirely free”. He also said “players will have access to regular content & missions at no extra cost”. Lastly, there are “no paid subscriptions or paid battle pass” within the Animus Hub.
He closed his remarks stating that more details on what the Animus Hub will offer will come as the launch of Assassin’s Creed Shadows gets closer.

Lets hope they implement it better than Activision has done with Call of Duty HQ, I have to separate Achievement/Trophy listings for CoD HQ between my PS4 and PS5, it’s rather annoying.
Despite owning Modern Warfare III on PS4, the CoD HQ installed from Black Ops 6 on PS5 doesn’t recognise this.
