Players can play as skilled ninjas and powerful samurais
Players take on the roles of both a skilled ninja and a powerful samurai, offering a new approach to combat in the series. This flexibility allows you to choose between the stealthy maneuvers favored by the ninja or the direct, head-on approach of the samurai.
The gameplay maintains the signature blend of open-world exploration, street brawls, and strategic stealth mechanics. The video shows how NPCs react differently to your chosen character; The crowds disperse in fear of the samurai, bowing respectfully as they pass.
Ubisoft highlighted the main concept of the game: “Two different assassins, two completely different combat modes! Choose a path to achieve your goals at will and write a new legend in the Japanese Warring States period!”
Assassin's Creed: Shadow is set to release on November 15, 2024, across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC platforms. According to reports, the game's availability on Mac and iPad is due to information revealed at Apple's WWDC24 conference.
