Assassin’s Creed has always split players’ time between stealth and combat, but Assassin’s Creed Shadows makes that duality clearer, dividing the action between two different characters. Recently, developer Ubisoft offered an important clarification about how much freedom players will have to choose one character over the other at any given time, and it sounds like the balance will please fans of stealth and combat alike.
Creative director Jonathan Dumont says that players can switch between Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ dual protagonists almost any time they like, giving them the option to prioritize either one they prefer.
