🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Unexpected Attack on Titan Crossover for Holiday Season In a surprising crossover event that challenges traditional predictions, Ubisoft has announced an digital crossover between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the renowned anime series Attack on Titan. The unusual holiday event continues from November 25 through December 22, providing complimentary additional story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Adventure Uncovered According to the formal announcement, "A mysterious confrontation leads heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a new mission, where whispers of prohibited rituals and fearsome transformations echo through the obscurity." The plot presents a "oddly garbed woman named Ada" who charges the pair with traveling into the Gemstone Grotto—a important location from Attack on Titan—to liberate her ally from a clandestine sect. The adventure focuses on "strange trials and a monstrous foe" and is accessible to all players who have acquired the Yasuke character. Iconic Settings and Changes The trailer showcases the Subterranean Sanctuary from Attack on Titan reimagined as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was previously where the Reiss royal family handed down the Founding Titan ability through ages. The preview concludes with a dramatic moment showing a character, likely the captive, morphing into a Titan that looms over Naoe and Yasuke. Special Prizes and Extra Material Players who successfully complete the adventure will acquire an special katana together with multiple artifacts hidden throughout the area in secret chests. The update also contains in-store Attack on Titan item packs, offering: Titan-inspired costume for Yasuke Mikasa outfit for Naoe Exclusive implements Survey Corps mount Third Free Story Addition This update also brings the game's newest no-cost story episode, titled "The Enigma." This lighthearted quest partners Naoe and Yasuke as they trade signature abilities: Naoe debuts a performative interpretation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke masters non-fatal stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "The Enigma" also contains a original environmental puzzle that may eventually shed light on some lingering questions from the main storyline. Past Japanese Animation Partnerships This signifies not the initial time the Assassin's Creed franchise has crossed over with famous anime franchises. The series formerly included a 2020 collaborative story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Furthermore, Valhalla subtly included a quest that clearly echoed the popular series One-Punch Man.
