Once you've selected a battle pass, complete objectives known as anomalies. Doing so will reward you with data fragments, which will fill up the battle pass, causing you to rank up and unlock rewards across the said pass.

These weekly and daily objectives range from killing particular enemies to purging corrupt entities. Players can track their anomalies from the objective menu on the world map.

The Cerulean Arc Katana in Assassin's Creed Shadows will be given to players as a reward when they fill up the battle pass to reach Rank 18.
