🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Reveals Surprising Attack on Titan Event for Holiday Season In a bizarre partnership that defies usual predictions, Ubisoft has announced an virtual collaboration between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The surprising holiday event continues from November 25 through December 22, offering complimentary extra story content for Shadows players. Mysterious Questline Disclosed According to the authorized statement, "A strange confrontation leads protagonists Naoe and Yasuke into a fresh adventure, where hints of forbidden rituals and fearsome changes echo through the obscurity." The plot presents a "strangely dressed woman named Ada" who charges the characters with venturing into the Crystalline Cavern—a important location from Attack on Titan—to rescue her ally from a clandestine sect. The mission focuses on "peculiar tests and a monstrous enemy" and is accessible to all players who have unlocked the Yasuke character. Familiar Settings and Changes The teaser features the Underground Chapel from Attack on Titan recreated as the Crystal Cave. This important location was formerly where the Reiss royal family transmitted the Founding Titan ability through generations. The trailer ends with a striking scene showing a character, probably the captive, transforming into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Special Rewards and Extra Material Players who finish the adventure will obtain an exclusive katana in addition to multiple objects hidden throughout the area in concealed chests. The update also includes premium Attack on Titan item packs, offering: Titan-based attire for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Unique implements Survey Corps vehicle Latest Free Story Addition This patch also introduces the game's third free story episode, titled "A Puzzlement." This lighthearted mission pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange characteristic skills: Naoe introduces a theatrical variation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke acquires non-lethal stealth takedowns. True to its name, "The Mystery" also includes a original environmental puzzle that may eventually explain some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Previous Anime Partnerships This represents hardly the first time the Assassin's Creed franchise has collaborated with well-known anime properties. The series earlier showcased a 2020 crossover story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla unofficially contained a quest that obviously referenced the famous series One-Punch Man.
