Assassin's Creed feudal Japan title emerges from the Shadows

Ubisoft’s upcoming feudal Japan-set Assassin’s Creed game now has a final name: Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

More pertinently, however, Shadows is the first Assassin’s Creed to come from the talented Ubisoft Quebec studio since 2017’s Assassin’s Creed Odyssey – the excellent if enormous entry set in Ancient Greece.

Shadows will be the first full-fat Assassin’s Creed game since 2020’s Valhalla, after the snack-sized Mirage launched last year to celebrate the series’ 15th anniversary.
