When you think of Assassin’s Creed, a few fixtures probably come to mind: sneaking through big cities, launching yourself into piles of hay that act like airbags, convoluted conspiracy plots involving the Illuminati and big tech. Interior decorating likely isn’t one of things that occurs to you first, but a new blog post from Ubisoft dives into a surprisingly cozy side of the rapidly approaching next game in the series.
We’ve known for a while that Assassin’s Creed Shadows would include a customizable home base called the Hideout, but now Ubisoft has slipped some key details on how exactly that will work. Located in the Izumi Settsu province, the Hideout sits on an acre of land deep in a remote valley, watched over by a caretaker named Tomiko. Assassin’s Creed games have featured similar bases before, but the difference this time is that players will be able to shape it themselves, adding everything from buildings and decoration to wildlife to the Hideout.
