Ubisoft could bring a PvP multiplayer to the franchise in Assassin's Creed Shadows again after many years. Corresponding information has found Dataminer.
Ubisoft recently disclosed the roadmap regarding the other content planned for Assassin's Creed Shadows in Year 1. It was about fresh story content and more, but not about a multiplayer mode. However, there could actually be one in an Assassin's Creed game again.
The reason for acceptance provides finds from Dataminers who have found concrete references to a PvP multiplayer in the game files. The Modder Sliderv2 has come into the game files equally in the words of the words “multiplayer”, “PvP” and “PvP Maps”.

Such finds do not necessarily have to mean that Ubisoft actually publishes a PvP multiplayer for Assassin's Creed Shadows, but you can have hopes. However, corresponding lines of text could still have remained from development times, although Ubisoft may have long since rejected such a planned feature. How the topic will develop in the future will be eager to observe.
A novelty would not be a multiplayer within the franchise, but it was some time ago that there was actually such a part in an Assassin's Creed – namely almost a decade. In Assassin's Creed: Unity, four players were able to compete together in co-op missions in a multiplayer mode. The last PvP implementation was available in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag when gamers could also compete against each other.
