Assassin’s Creed Shadowsoffers several weapons for players to choose from when tackling different combat scenarios. These weapons can be further customized with engravings, encouraging players to create diverse builds that will change the approach to combat. To manage all these different builds, AC Shadows allows players to create loadouts and also switch between them with ease. This feature wasn’t available from the get-go, so you’ll have to work toward unlocking it.
