Have you heard the latest buzz about the Assassin’s Creed series?
Get ready because Assassin’s Creed Shadows is dropping on November 15, 2024, and it’s set in a breathtaking 16th-century Japan.
We’re talking samurais, ninjas, and all the drama of the Sengoku period here!
And the best part?
This game features not one, but TWO protagonists – Yasuke and Naoe.
Think of them as two sides of the same coin, each bringing their own flair to the story. Yasuke, a foreign samurai, is all about honor and respect, while Naoe, a clever and resourceful local, can blend into the crowd like a true ninja.
They’re both tangled up in the political web of the time, thanks to the famous daimyo, Oda Nobunaga. Talk about historical eye candy!
Ubisoft spilled the bean on their blog about how these two will interact and it sounds juicy.
Yasuke and Naoe won’t be besties from the get-go.
They have different takes on Nobunaga’s tactics, and this leads to some intense drama and a deeper dive into the late Sengoku period.
It’s like watching a samurai soap opera! Their social statuses add even more spice.
Naoe can mix with the peasants and go undercover when needed, making her the ultimate stealth queen.
Yasuke, on the other hand, stands out with his foreigner status and samurai clout, making NPCs bow to him left and right.
Yasuke’s and Naoe’s different personalities and statuses will give us varied interactions, and yes, even their love lives will be different.
Yasuke might be into a certain type, while Naoe attracts a different crowd, offering us a whole spectrum of romantic escapades.
I can’t wait to see how their stories unfold and how they’ll handle the challenges thrown their way. November 15 can’t come soon enough!
