Assassin's Creed Shadows, the long-awaited murder-trip to feudal Japan, has finally been revealed in both a cinematic trailer and a breakdown of the new characters coming to the series: The shinobi Naoe and the samurai Yasuke, the first playable character in the long-running series to be based on a real-life historical figure.
Players will take on the roles of both Naoe and Yasuke over the course of the game in an "intertwined story" set in the late Sengoku period, each of them offering a distinct narrative perspective and gameplay.
