As an avid enthusiast of the Assassin’s Creed series, I must admit that Ubisoft has been quite secretive about Assassin’s Creed Shadows, ensuring its grand unveiling in March. However, it’s only natural for leaks to pop up every now and then with any game.
An intriguing aspect of the AC Shadows is that the leaks surprisingly emerged from an unusual location, specifically a site dedicated to adult anime or manga, often referred to as a hentai platform.

A Reddit user uncovered a leak about the game by sharing details from a 200+ page art book titled “The Art of Assassin’s Creed Shadows“. Although the album has been taken down, the following post reveals certain story aspects. (Be warned: potential spoilers ahead)

Thus far, recognized historical characters in the game include Oda Nobunaga and Yasuke. However, leaked information reveals additional significant figures such as Kamiizumi Nobitsuna, Ashikaga Toshiaki, also known as Lady Nene, and Lady Oichi.
The game also provides certain evidence linking it to the older Assassin’s Brotherhood, such as a mysterious artifact rumored to be a fragment of the legendary Piece of Eden.
Assassin’s Creed and Actual History
Regardless of their advancements in scope and open-world aspects throughout the years, a consistent thread connecting all Assassin’s Creed games is their connection to real-world history.
In contrast to the ‘official’ history commonly taught in schools, the game Assassin’s Creed proposes an imaginative reinterpretation of historical facts, featuring a clandestine assassin group that played significant roles behind the scenes, influencing the course of events without their presence being openly acknowledged.
In essence, The King’s Man, the prequel to Kingsman, aimed for a similar feel, but unfortunately, the series didn’t gain much traction. Conversely, the Assassin’s Creed franchise has always been deeply rooted in reinterpreting history since its very origins.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In the case of “Assassin’s Creed Shadows”, the game uniquely introduces two main characters: one is the legendary black samurai known as Yasuke, and the other is a novel character designed specifically for this game named Naoe. Interestingly, Naoe shares real-life connections with the Brotherhood.
In the game, players can alternate between Yasuke and Naoe characters, each with their unique combat styles. Yasuke, a traditional samurai warrior, engages enemies directly, while Naoe, a stealthy assassin, prefers to scale buildings and carry out covert assassinations.
In addition, it’s been verified that the game design for the new title, Assassin’s Shadows, differs slightly from previous Assassin’s games. Instead of following a traditional pattern where missions are plotted on a map after completing common tasks, this game will reportedly place greater emphasis on gathering information. Players can expect to spend more time actively exploring rather than just scaling tall buildings to reveal the locations of all challenges and side quests.
The official description for the game reads:
Step into the thrilling action-adventure saga unfolding in medieval Japan! Transform into a formidable shinobi assassin and an esteemed samurai legend as you traverse a stunning open world amidst turmoil. Fluidly switch between these unconventional partners to uncover their shared destiny. Learn the finesse of two distinct playstyles, build your own secret ninja league, personalize your hideout, and bring about a new age for Japan!
Keep a lookout for the upcoming release of “Assassin’s Creed Shadows” on March 20th for PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. Don’t miss it!
