Assassin’s Creed Shadows trailer
The Assassin’s Creed Shadows trailer was unveiled on May 15 2024. The trailer introduces us to Yasuke and Naoe, a samurai and shinobi respectively, who will serve as our dual-protagonists in this story that wants to deliver the power fantasies of two very different Azuchi-Momoyama era warriors.
From the trailer, we can glean that Yasuke’s playstyle favors the slick arts of the samurai, while Naoe’s quiet, deft work in the shadows more closely resembles the AC series’ stealthy origins.
The Setting
– Assassin’s Creed Shadows takes place in the Azuchi-Momoyama period of Japanese history. The story begins in 1579 and will continue into the early 1580s. The time period means this is the first game in the series to feature the Assassins and Templars in their ‘classic’ forms since 2015’s Assassin’s Creed Syndicate.
– A number of historical figures play prominent roles in the campaign. These include Oda Nobunaga, the “great unifier” of Japan, and Fujibayashi Nagato, a master ninja of the Iga clan.
– Much like Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, Shadows features two protagonists and you can switch between them as you play through the campaign. The first of these dual leads is Naoe, the fictional daughter of Fujibayashi Nagato. She is trained by her father to be a skilled shinobi.
– The second protagonist is Yasuke, a real historical figure. Originally from Africa, Yasuke came to Japan with the Portuguese in 1579 and soon became a samurai in the employ of Lord Oda Nobunaga. Shadows is the first Assassin’s Creed game to ever let you play as a real person from the past.
