Assassin's Creed Shadows' dual protagonists Naoe and Yasuke are each purpose-built for different functions, letting you switch between stealth and combat-oriented gameplay depending on the situation and your playstyle.
Following the big reveal of Ubisoft's new open-world game Assassin's Creed Shadows, which is based in feudal Japan, the studio released a dedicated video showcasing the game's dual protagonists and their unique talents. Yasuke is a samurai who uses his big frame and martial skills to his advantage. He can break down doors, shatter enemies' armor, and fight multiple foes at once. Meanwhile, Naoe is a nimble shinobi who uses a light-footed approach, not to mention hidden blades, to sneak past enemies and use deadly force only when necessary.
