🔗 Share this article AC Shadows Unveils Unexpected Attack on Titan Event for Thanksgiving In a surprising collaboration that breaks conventional predictions, the game developer has announced an digital collaboration between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The surprising holiday event runs from November 25 through December 22, including no-cost extra story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Questline Disclosed According to the official release, "An unusual meeting leads protagonists Naoe and Yasuke into a original quest, where whispers of prohibited rituals and fearsome transformations echo through the shadows." The narrative introduces a "unusually attired woman named Ada" who assigns the duo with traveling into the Crystalline Cavern—a important location from Attack on Titan—to liberate her companion from a secret sect. The adventure focuses on "strange experiments and a monstrous foe" and is available to all players who have acquired the Yasuke character. Familiar Places and Metamorphoses The teaser features the Subterranean Sanctuary from Attack on Titan recreated as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was formerly where the Reiss royal family handed down the Founding Titan ability through generations. The preview finishes with a dramatic moment showing a character, likely the hostage, morphing into a Titan that looms over Naoe and Yasuke. Unique Items and Extra Material Players who successfully complete the mission will acquire an unique katana together with numerous items secreted throughout the area in concealed chests. The update also includes premium Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-themed costume for Yasuke Mikasa outfit for Naoe Special implements Survey Corps steed Third Free Story Addition This release also adds the game's newest complimentary story addition, titled "The Enigma." This playful mission partners Naoe and Yasuke as they swap distinctive skills: Naoe reveals a dramatic variation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke acquires subduing stealth takedowns. True to its name, "The Mystery" also contains a fresh environmental puzzle that may ultimately clarify some lingering questions from the main storyline. Earlier Anime Partnerships This represents scarcely the primary time the Assassin's Creed franchise has crossed over with famous anime series. The series formerly included a 2020 collaborative story connecting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Furthermore, Valhalla informally contained a quest that obviously referenced the popular series One-Punch Man.
