Assassin's Creed Shadows is an upcoming 2024 action role-playing video game developed by Ubisoft Quebec and published by Ubisoft. The game is the fourteenth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series and the successor to 2023's Assassin's Creed Mirage, as well as the first title to be included in the Assassin's Creed: Infinity platform. Set in 16th-century Japan towards the end of the Sengoku period.[1] The game will focus on the millenia-old struggle of the Assassin Brotherhood, who fight for peace and liberty, and the Templar Order, who desire peace through control, from the perspective of two protagonists: Naoe, a female shinobi, and Yasuke, an African samurai based on the historical figure of the same name. The two characters control differently and provide a unique gameplay style, allowing quests to be approached in multiple ways.[1]

Shadows is to be released for PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox Series X/S, Amazon Luna, and macOS on November 15, 2024.[2]

Synopsis

Setting

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set in feudal Japan, specifically starting in 1579 during the Azuchi-Momoyama period. This era marks the final stage of the Sengoku period, a time of intense civil war in Japan. The game features the historical figure Oda Nobunaga at the height of his power following his victory over the Takeda clan using arquebus firearms. Key historical events include Nobunaga's assault on the Iga province in 1581, a significant battle involving the Iga ikki, known for their ninjutsu arts.[3]

The game will explore central Japan, including regions like Kyoto, Kobe, Osaka, and the Iga province, with historically accurate castles such as Takeda Castle. This setting promises a vibrant world of urbanization, bustling ports, samurai districts, and ornate architecture, all significant for parkour and exploration in the game. The influence of Portuguese traders and Jesuit missionaries, who introduced Christianity and new technologies like cannons and long guns, also plays a role in shaping the game's environment and narrative.[3]

Development

Shadows was teased at the Assassin's Creed 15th Anniversary presentation in September 2022, under the working title Assassin's Creed: Codename Red.[1] No further official announcements were made about the game until May 13, 2024, when the final title was unveiled ahead of the game's official reveal on May 15.[4][5][6]
