Assassin's Creed Shadows: A Glimpse into the Past and Future

Players control two characters: the foreign African Yasuke, Oda Nobunaga’s ninja retainer, and the Japanese Naoe Fujibayashi, an expert ninja-assassin in training. Ubisoft Quebec, the team behind Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (2018) and Immortals Fenyx Rising (2020), has been tasked with developing Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The game takes place in 1579 Japan, during the violent Sengoku period. Similar to Kassandra, Alexios in Odyssey, and Fenyx in Immortals Fenyx Rising, players control two characters from two competing forces. The Assassin’s Creed series has always been about the righteous struggle for liberty. In this game, players must make choices between honour and duty, between revenge and redemption.

A Symphony of Shadows and Blades: Gameplay Evolution

The Heartbeat of Stealth and Combat

In keeping with the series’ traditional mechanics, the core gameplay system in Assassin’s Creed Shadows is a blend of stealth and combat. Because Yasuke gets a weapon transform from time to time (think of the katana or even the nasty naginata) he plays the part of the brawler; Naoe is a stealth specialist, who never gets a weapon upgrade, representing the Hidden Blade and shuriken-thrower. The dichotomy means a variety of play styles depending on which character is active in the game.

Revolutionary Game Mechanics

Built around a new generation of the Anvil engine, Assassin’s Creed Shadows features new stealth gameplay with enhanced lighting effects and dynamic weather conditions that enrich the visual experience and dramatically affect gameplay strategies. They are now setting the standard for the series.

A Journey for One: The Singular Adventure

It would be nice to be able to explore feudal Japan’s lush wilderness with a friend or two by your side, but having two Haruos pulling on two separate trees is not going to get that ancient oak any closer to the ground. Not only does that physicality forbid cooperative play, it is a design decision that keeps the rich focus of the smaller story and the character relationships. In having to play through everything by yourself as Yasuke and Naoe, you are more fully drawn into the story and can feel what it is like to be in their place.

XBOX SERIES X|S, PC, and Beyond

That translates into faster load times this time out and a bump in graphical fidelity.

A Connected World: Internet Requirements

We knew very early that a majority of the [gaming] population prefer[s] the singleplayer experience.
