Assassin’s Creed Shadows Launches November 15, Features Dual Protagonists in Feudal Japan

Set in 16th century Japan, Assassin’s Creed Shadows will star Japanese shinobi Naoe, and real-life samurai Yasuke.

I wonder if it'll have the historic scenes of Nobunaga ordering Yasuke to strip and take a bath to confirm he wasn't painted that color.

I find it a little funny they decided to reveal the game a day before Ghost of Tsushima releases on PC.

I've seen rumblings that this game on PS5 will require an internet connection to complete installation from the disc; possibly also to play. Ubisoft will not get my money if this is the case!

How else would we know it's a AAAA game, without a feature like that?

[The-VG-shamman]

Can we cancel all the upcoming assassins creed until we have a new engine that surpasses what unity was supposed to be? Lol some new and vastly different from the Zelda style RPG. Lol

I’m sorry but assassins creed black flag looks better than current Zelda. Not a better game but definitely a better looking game.

Dude anyone who’s been playing assassins creed long enough knows that the series reset after origins came out. I love black flag, one of my favorite games in the series. Origins changed the entire engine and relied on bigger scale and rpg elements. I’m not sure how you thought black flag was an rpg? As only the games after origin have the rpg elements. With hit damage point system, gear ect. What we need is a game engine that surpasses ac unitys vision. Overhaul parkour system and solid combat mechanism with little to no bugs or glitches. The climbing on recent AC games are as lame as breath of the wild lol. Same with the combat.

@ VG shaman

I didn’t say it was an rpg I said that graphically it looked better than Zelda which was the point of the article. It was on graphics not genre.

UBI - IS - SOFT !

When I was a fan of the series, I always wanted a game set in Japan. Now that we have it, I don't care anymore.

Grind, filler, padding, bloat, call it what you want, but that stuff is boring, and is designed to waste our lifespans intentionally to coax us into spending more money with their generically stamped out derivative games.

TOO LITTLE TOO LATE UBI-JUNK.

This kind of "dual protagonists" means generic story, boring mission, water-downed scenes (why all the statues in ancient Greece all clothed and covered in AC: Odyssey?)

Not proud of it, but Im addicted to collecting the collectors statues...was hoping they wouldn't have one this time...no such luck.
