Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ day-one patch removes blood and makes shrines indestructible following backlash

Assassin’s Creed Shadows has a day-one patch that reduces the amount of bloodshed and destruction you can do in the game’s shrines.

As reported by Automaton and confirmed by our own Features Editor Andrew Brown, the patch makes tables and shelves within the game’s shrines indestructible. This is likely to quell the backlash that came after an Assassin’s Creed Shadows preview showed that you could choose to do this in the game. It’s surprising to me that people are taking issue with this in a series where you beat the Pope to a bloody pulp in the Vatican and assassinate a man in a church confessional booth.
