In "Assassin's Creed Shadows," players are finally transported to the captivating world of feudal Japan, a setting long yearned for by fans of the series. Here, they will embody the roles of Naway, a skilled Shinobi assassin, and Yas, a formidable Samurai, embarking on a journey through the tumultuous Sengoku period.
