Assassin’s Creed Shadows gameplay video shows 13 minutes of footage

Ubisoft has released the first full gameplay footage of Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

The 13-minute sequence shows the game’s protagonists Yasuke and Naoe traversing through the countryside, exploring Fukuchiyama.

It then shows some combat, a story cutscene, some stealth gameplay and footage of an escape, as well as more footage of the game’s open world.

Set for release on November 15, 2024, Assassin’s Creed Shadows takes place in 16th century Japan.

“The country is heading towards a brutal path to unification, where unrest grows as new coalitions appear and corruptive foreign influences infiltrate the land,” Ubisoft said.

“Players will experience the intertwined stories of Naoe, an adept shinobi Assassin from the Iga Province, and Yasuke, the powerful samurai of historical legend.”

“Discover their personal stories, meet pivotal historical figures, and shape the duo’s common destiny as they usher in a new era for Japan.”

According to Ubisoft, each character plays differently.

“As Naoe and Yasuke, players can master two complementary playstyles, with each character featuring their own progression paths, skills, weapon options, and stats,” it said last month. “Whether they embrace Naoe’s stealth skills or Yasuke’s combat prowess, players will have plenty of ways to approach objectives.

“With Naoe, they will experience refined infiltration mechanics using light, noise, shadows, and changing surroundings to avoid detection from enemies. With Yasuke, they will be able to take on larger groups of enemies with brutal precision.”
