Piggyback Official Interactive Maps vs Shackmaps

Piggyback Official Interactive Maps provides web maps for Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Cyberpunk 2077. Players can use them to find and track locations and collectibles in each game world. Piggyback says it worked with Ubisoft on the Assassin’s Creed Shadows map and CD Projekt on the Cyberpunk 2077 map; both are described as ultra-HD representations of their game worlds. The Assassin’s Creed Shadows map lists powerful zoom, unlimited progress tracking, more than 3,400 4K screenshots, exclusive information, and custom notes and markers. The Cyberpunk 2077 map includes progress tracking, more than 800 hi-res screenshots, hidden-gem coverage, guide updates, and custom notes. Its free version permits five notes and 100 marked locations. The one-time Map Premium Upgrade costs $6.99 and includes 4K screenshots, exclusive information, unlimited notes and marked locations, and maximum zoom. The maps integrate with their accompanying official guides and games, and account pages offer guide-code redemption. Registration requires an email and password and agreement to Piggyback’s Terms of Use and Privacy Notice.

Shackmaps is a free interactive map site for video games. Visitors can search for a game or choose a map linked from the homepage, then browse locations and track completion progress. Its Red Dead Redemption 2 map includes locations such as Legendary Animals, Legendary Fish, Dinosaur Bones, Rock Carvings, and Cigarette Cards. Shacknews says the site was created to give players and developers another option for interactive game maps. Maps are made with game experts and maintained through continued updates; Shacknews says it works with developers where possible. Browsing does not require an account. A free Google or Apple sign-in is needed to track progress, place custom pins, or suggest pins. The site says it has no subscription or paywall. Its privacy policy says account setup stores email addresses and checked pins, which are encrypted at rest, and that user data is not sold. The terms restrict use to personal, non-commercial purposes and say the site is not intended for children under 16 without parental consent.
