We got a closer look at the stealthy shinobi and tank-like samurai characters in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed.
This game stars dual protagonists, the stealthy shinobi Naoe and the real-life samurai Yasuke.
The demonstration began with Yasuke riding across the countryside on horseback and then exploring a village on foot.
The villagers reacted to the presence of a samurai with respect, and some even bowed.
He then switches to using a more traditional katana for the second phase of the fight.
When he takes out the leader, there’s a special transition to mark the beheading.
Another fighter attempts to ambush Yasuke, but Naoe intervenes.
After killing a few guards, she runs off to escape the camp.
So this is making good on a long-awaited expectation, but the dual-protagonist approach gives it a different twist.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on November 15.
