Set in 16th Century Japan, Assassin’s Creed Shadows Release Date Announced

Led by Ubisoft Québec (Assassin’s Creed Odyssey), Assassin’s Creed Shadows will take players to 16th century Japan. The game depicts growing unrest as new coalitions emerge and corrupt foreign powers infiltrate the country. During this period, players will struggle to lead the country towards unity and solidarity.

Two Unforgettable Characters: Naoe and Yasuke

Experience the stories of Naoe, a master shinobi assassin from the Iga region, and Yasuke, a powerful samurai, as they explore their personal stories, meet important historical figures, and shape their shared destiny at the dawn of Japan’s new era. Naoe and Yasuke will offer two complementary playstyles, each with their own unique progression paths, skills, weapon options and stats.

Naoe will utilize stealth skills, using light, noise, shadow and environmental factors to hide from enemies, while Yasuke will ruthlessly take down large groups of enemies.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows will allow you to explore a vast open world with varied landscapes that change with the weather and seasons. The castle towns, bustling harbors, peaceful temples and idyllic landscapes of feudal Japan come to life with unprecedented dynamism, built from the ground up with the latest version of the Anvil game engine and the power of next-gen consoles.

Intelligence will be of paramount importance in this challenging time and will be at the heart of the revamped exploration mechanics. We will be able to recruit allies to help during missions, build our customizable bunker and upgrade our network, while building our own spy networks to uncover new areas and hunt down targets.

The standard edition of Assassin’s Creed Shadows will be available on next-gen platforms for €79.99/$69.99. In addition, fans who pre-order will receive an additional mission. Gold, Complete and Collector’s editions have also been announced:
