Assassin's Creed Shadows

Ubisoft has released a new TV ad for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, consisting entirely of protagonists Naoe and Yasuke. It provides brief snatches of their abilities – the former sneaking and assassinating while the latter shatters enemies through walls – and what ultimately unites them. Check it out below.

Story-wise, Shadows takes place in the late Sengoku period, where Oda Nobunaga reigns supreme. He subsequently attacks the Iga Province and clan, which Naoe is a part of. Then there’s Yasuke, who becomes Nobunaga’s vassal and subsequently partakes in the assault on Iga. It’s unknown exactly how he crosses paths with Naoe or how she becomes involved with the Hidden Ones.

Nevertheless, they decide to work together and root out injustice in Japan. Assassin’s Creed Shadows promises a 30-40-hour story, though the side content could easily push it beyond 80 hours. It’s out on March 20th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, with reviews allegedly going live on March 18th. Head here for the latest details.
