PlayStation has just published 20 minutes of new footage from Assassin's Creed Shadows, demonstrating the different stealth and combat approaches protagonists Yasuke and Naoe can take in Ubisoft's open-world game. Yasuke is a combat specialist while Naoe is a stealth master, but it's seeing their roles reversed that's the most interesting part of this new footage.
Assassin's Creed has usually sanded off the gameplay edges we're used to seeing in more hardcore stealth games, but Yasuke's less nimble abilities make him look a lot more like a Snake or Sam Fisher than your typical acrobatic AC protagonist. In fact, the stealth gameplay shown here with Yasuke reminds me a whole lot of Metal Gear Solid 3.
