The Animus Hub is a new launcher for Assassin's Creed from where you'll be able to access all post- Syndicate titles. It's similar to how the Call of Duty launcher works, and it also includes weekly activities, challenges, and a free battle pass.

The expansion is called Claws of Awaji, made by the developers behind Assassin's Creed Mirage. Here, protagonists Yasuke and Naoe travel to the island of Awaji beyond Osaka Bay. A new enemy called the Sanzoku Ippa will hunt down Yasuke and Naoe as they try to secure a lost treasure. Naoe also gets a new weapon type--the bo staff.
