I'm sorry to report that the discourse around Assassin's Creed Shadows' 'historical accuracy' isn't over as a parody game is launching on the very same day as Ubisoft's Japan-set open world.
Yasuke Simulator recently popped up on Steam, and while nothing in the parody's blurb explicitly references Assassin's Creed Shadows, it's not exactly being subtle about what's going on here. You play as Yasuke, the same historical figure who became Japan's first black samurai. It comes on March 20, the very same day as Shadows. Its Steam description says that the team, called HistoricallyAccurateDevelopers, "provide a totally historically accurate depiction of Feudal Japan with Yasuke the Samurai" - an obvious reference to the multiple controversies surrounding the game.
