Assassin’s Creed Shadows, once known as Codename: Red, sends the franchise to feudal era Japan in 2025. Ubisoft released the game’s first trailer, teasing more in June
Ubisoft gave Assassin’s Creed fans their first real look at the next flagship game in the long-running franchise with the debut trailer for Assassin’s Creed Shadows on Wednesday. Previously known as Assassin’s Creed: Codename Red, Shadows will send the franchise to feudal Japan for the first time this November, letting players live out their shinobi fantasies as the ninja Naoe.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows will also let players take on a second role, that of legendary Black samurai Yasuke. While other Assassin’s Creed games have featured dual protagonists, the two playable characters of Shadows appear to be more distinct than those of any previous game.
