The digital artbook prepared for Ubisoft’s highly anticipated game Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been leaked in a rather unusual way.

The leaked artbook offers a comprehensive look at the world of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The book includes the game’s character designs, concepts based on historical figures and armor designs. While the armors designed for the characters Naoe and Yasuke in particular draw attention, some of these designs will be locked with in-game purchase options, as in Ubisoft’s previous games.
In addition, designs belonging to historical figures such as Portuguese Templars Nuno Caro and Duarte de Melo, as well as Hattori Hanzo and Lady Nene, were also included in the artbook. It was also revealed that the game will feature creatures inspired by Japanese mythology, such as kitsune, red-crowned cranes, and a white deer with antlers decorated with cherry blossoms.
The leaks also revealed some details about the mechanics of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The game will feature a mercenary system familiar from previous games. However, this time, it was shared that players will be constantly followed by mercenaries called “Henchmen” when they attract the attention of their enemies. The concepts of the game’s user interface and world are also included in detail in the artbook. The visuals show that the game offers an atmosphere based on Japan’s rich cultural history.
The artbook leak of Assassin’s Creed Shadows has caused a great resonance in the gaming world. While no official statement has yet been made by Ubisoft, it is a matter of curiosity how this leak will affect the game’s promotional process. As the game’s official release date approaches, new details are expected to be shared. This unexpected leak has already created a lot of excitement among Assassin’s Creed fans.
