Assassin’s Creed is back, and it’s looking cooler than ever. In the first trailer for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, we journey to Japan to explore the intertwined stories of two Samurai warriors. You can watch the epic trailer in full below.
The official description for Assassin’s Creed Shadows shares:
In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you will live the intertwined stories of Naoe, an adept shinobi Assassin from Iga Province, and Yasuke, the powerful African samurai of historical legend. Against the backdrop of the turbulent late Sengoku period, this remarkable duo will discover their common destiny as they usher in a new era for Japan.
From chaos to purpose, from darkness to light. A new Creed rises over Japan.
A shinobi assassin and a samurai? We could not be more in. A release from Ubisoft notes what we can expect from Assasin’s Creed Shadows‘ gameplay, sharing “As Naoe and Yasuke, players can master two complementary playstyles, with each character featuring their own progression paths, skills, weapon options, and stats. Whether they embrace Naoe’s stealth skills or Yasuke’s combat prowess, players will have plenty of ways to approach objectives. With Naoe, they will experience refined infiltration mechanics using light, noise, shadows, and changing surroundings to avoid detection from enemies. With Yasuke, they will be able to take on larger groups of enemies with brutal precision.” You can even see this all come to life in the Assasin’s Creed gameplay trailer below.
