🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Reveals Bizarre Attack on Titan Event for Holiday Season In a surprising collaboration that defies usual forecasts, Ubisoft has unveiled an virtual crossover between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the renowned anime series Attack on Titan. The unexpected holiday event continues from November 25 through December 22, offering complimentary bonus story content for Shadows players. Strange Questline Revealed According to the official announcement, "A mysterious encounter pulls heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a fresh mission, where whispers of prohibited ceremonies and fearsome metamorphoses reverberate through the shadows." The plot presents a "unusually attired woman named Ada" who assigns the duo with journeying into the Crystalline Cavern—a significant location from Attack on Titan—to save her friend from a hidden sect. The questline centers on "bizarre trials and a monstrous foe" and is open to all players who have unlocked the Yasuke character. Familiar Settings and Metamorphoses The preview showcases the Hidden Temple from Attack on Titan recreated as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was earlier where the Reiss royal family handed down the Founding Titan ability through eras. The trailer ends with a dramatic scene showing a character, presumably the hostage, changing into a Titan that towers over Naoe and Yasuke. Exclusive Prizes and Additional Features Players who successfully complete the adventure will receive an exclusive katana in addition to multiple items secreted throughout the area in secret chests. The update also contains in-store Attack on Titan item packs, offering: Titan-based attire for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Exclusive arms Survey Corps vehicle Latest Free Story Content This patch also brings the game's newest no-cost story episode, titled "The Enigma." This lighthearted mission pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange distinctive skills: Naoe debuts a theatrical interpretation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke masters non-fatal stealth takedowns. Loyal to its name, "The Enigma" also features a fresh environmental puzzle that may eventually clarify some lingering questions from the main storyline. Previous Anime Crossovers This marks scarcely the primary time the Assassin's Creed franchise has collaborated with popular anime franchises. The series earlier showcased a 2020 cross-promotional story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla subtly contained a quest that unmistakably nodded to the famous series One-Punch Man.
