Hey, gamers, listen up! Assassin's Creed Shadows drops on Steam on March 20th. You can play as Naoe the shinobi or Yasuke the samurai in feudal Japan. They each have awesome, unique weapons and abilities that change the gameplay.
The AC team just put out a sick 20-minute video showing Naoe and Yasuke doing the same mission their way. You see how Naoe is all about stealth, and Yasuke is a beast in combat. It's super cool to see the differences in action.
In the video, they're trying to take out this Takahashi Shiro dude who's part of the Twisted Tree family. He's hiding out in Nijo Palace. Naoe goes in at night, using her Hidden Blade and grappling hook to stay sneaky. She can put out lanterns and even assassinate guys right through the shoji doors! But don't worry, her kusarigama weapon is nasty in a fight.
Yasuke, though, uses his muscles to climb up on the roofs. He's sniping dudes with his bow and slicing them up with his katana, all in broad daylight without anyone noticing. And when it's time to throw down, watch out! His teppo rifle, kanabo club, and naginata are straight-up explosives.
We also see three recruitable buddies helping out. There's Gennojo, who can stun enemies so they can't move. Oni-Yuri is a poison master who can knock out a bunch of guys at once. And Yaya, she's a crazy good fighter who can take out guards before Naoe even flips down from the roof.
This is just a little preview of Naoe and Yasuke's skills before Assassin's Creed Shadows comes out on March 20th. You can wishlist it or pre-purchase it on Steam right now. Everyone who pre-purchases gets the Thrown to the Dogs bonus quest at launch and the Claws of Awaji expansion later for free. Don't miss out!
