How you y’all get hyped off of a 5 sec trailer that showed nothing? Everything they showed we knew it was gonna be in the game. They show you a Templar symbol and you jizz your pants lol. But hey I guess everyone got their kinks
Saaame! I loved them in AC2 and Brotherhood! The feeling of unlocking something you could see from the beginning after spending hours upon hours completing different challenges is unmatched!
@ same here it was one of the best things to do specially in black flag I really hope they add it into this game but i highly doubt it I also noticed they haven’t mentioned anything about the mythical monsters or stuff where gonna get to fight like in Valhalla I feel like it’s been removed from the game as they haven’t shown or talked about any of it
@@jakemurray3722 I think they mentioned once that the mythical stuff will play a rather minimal role in Shadows but I'm not sure if I remember it correctly or not.
Looks like the delay has really helped improved the game. Ubisoft is not only on thin ice, but the ice is broken and they have already have one leg in the water. They know that if Shadows fails, it's completely over for them. It seems like they've actually done what they've struggled to do for years now: really focus on fine tuning all the tiny details and delivering an experienced they know the players will love
I think yasuke well be a ronin for the later half of the story, that’s a speculation tho because in real life yasuke was only employed under oda nubonaga for a year before oda was assassinated, or they could change that maybe.
@@ironx_xd well the real yasuke tried fighting for oda nubonaga’s son after he was assassinated, but the son failed and yasuke was returned to the jesuits, i think in ac shadows that’s when yasuke decides to join the assassins to avenge his dead master.

They really have their work cut out for them, just good gameplay alone won't be enough to save this game, the story needs to have good pacing and narrative, we need to know who the characters we are playing, they need a really good story with good writing, people have been absolutely dragging the characters ever since the first trailer now it's time to prove the haters wrong, great video man :)
Eivor and I think basim killed off the last branch of the OOTA. It’d only make sense for the Templars to be in Shadows. Alfred said at the end of Valhalla that Eivor’s actions allowed a new order to take place in Gods name. Or something like that.
Shadows takes place after the Ezio trilogy and Altair’s game so the templars are definitely in charge now Edit: also Eivor was killing the first Templar’s
Basim didn't do shit - He led Sigurd around like a rat and was confined in a simulation for over 1200 years after Eivor beat his ass. Only Hytham was mentioned in Aelfred's study and Eivor alone was responsible for the foundations of the new order.
@@DarkoRavens Basim hunted down the other targets that Eivor did not. There might have been other zealots, other than the ones Eivor killed. Plus their leader, whom was mentioned in the game.
I mean it was kinda confirmed already that the Templar returns as the game is set when the Assassins are already established and aren’t known as the hidden ones anymore.
I think their next articles will drop in the second half of January. I mean if it is the second week it would be amazing but they're not releasing things consistently, so...
@@azoozghazal7347 I think the parkour in Shadows will be much better than in AC games from Origins to Valhalla, but comparing it to Unity is a bit tricky for a few reasons. First, during the Sengoku era, Japanese structures weren't as tall as the buildings in Unity, which offered more vertical scaling. Second, Naoe has tools that weren’t available in Unity, like her grappling hook. She can use it to scale walls, swing across gaps, or climb structures, and it's more physics based compared to Syndicate's rope launcher. Besides since many loved Unity's flashy parkour animations, Shadows will feature some interesting looking animations too. Whether they’ll match Unity’s quality remains to be seen. As for back ejects, if you're wondering whether they are back in Shadows then the answer is yes. But if you're asking what they are, back ejects are an advanced parkour mechanic that lets you jump to surfaces or ledges behind your character, keeping the movement fluid and smooth without breaking the pace.
@@azoozghazal7347 Mirage was essentially an upgraded version of Valhalla. It had back ejects and was definitely more fluid than Valhalla but it still felt sluggish and a bit odd at times. The game focused mainly on Baghdad (and Anbar for the intro) with little in between, so Ubisoft put a lot of effort into creating platforming and parkour scenarios for players to enjoy. Shadows on the other hand will feature cities like Kyoto and Osaka along with nine vast provinces offering a variety of biomes and terrains. This means the city design might not be as focused as Mirage, but I think the parkour will feel much more fluid than in Mirage!
Hey, yes you will be able to preorder the game on digital stores for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC when it's available. Preorders stopped in September 2024 because the game was delayed. Right now, you can't preorder it, but I think preorders might open again by January 2025-unless the game gets delayed again, which we’re not sure about yet.
Doubtful hope gameplay is like Valhalla damage wise never felt enemies were damage sponges excluding on high difficulty were they just increase damage dealt as “difficulty” Will buy it on sale don’t expect modern day to change much though game story idk time will tell don’t care if it got leaked not as excited as I used to be back in ac3 and below
It would be great if they did so I love the isu exploring and the mythology from the last two RPG entries perhaps there will be more. A lot of players don’t like it and I don’t understand why it’s just other humans that like for example, example in odyssey, they touched the apples and couldn’t control them and transformed into mythical monsters Valhalla was all illusions distorted by what they could understand with their human brain from the past of past lives, but since it was so long ago, they can’t recall exactly what things look like, so they’re using the closest representation of God like era to their best knowledge. But now it’s time for us to focus on the two main enemies of the time. Which would then lead us into assassins Creed three it all ties back to assassin’s Creed three because these are prequel games that they’re focusing on right now and I’m really enjoying the direction.
The duration of the Shadows is apparently from 1579 to 1582 or 1584. Because of Yasuke's timeline in Japan. Ok, so my ideas below can still come true. Kassandra, burdened by centuries of immortality and seeking meaning in her endless life, arrives in Japan after detecting the Eden artifacts' energies. Her goal: to ensure the balance between freedom and control, preventing the Pieces of Eden from destroying yet another civilization. At the same time, the Tokugawa Shogunate rises to power as secret allies of the Assassins, striving to bring balance and freedom to Japan. However, the Templars, led by the ambitious Oda Nobunaga and his successor Toyotomi Hideyoshi, manipulate the chaos of the waring states to pursue domination through Pieces of Eden. The legendary status of samurai are reimagined as the manifestation of their Isu DNA, linking their historical prowess to a larger Assassin’s Creed mythos. The Sengoku civil war is revealed to be not just a struggle for dominion, but a proxy war between Assassins and Templars vying for control of powerful Pieces of Eden. The samurai lords, unknowingly influenced by their Isu lineage and the artifacts power, have become key players in this hidden sci-fi war. **Honda Tadakatsu, 32 in 1582:** Known as the "Warrior without Equal," Tadakatsu is a near-invincible general, and one of Tokugawa Ieyasu’s most loyal retainers, is revealed to be the most powerful hybrid Isu to date, possessing the strength of a 1000 men, formidable god like abilities and ancient Pieces of Eden, possibly an Isu-forged suit of armor or a legendary weapon like his Tonbo-giri (Dragonfly Cutter spear). His unmatched strength and combat prowess make him Kassandra’s deadliest and most powerful frenemy/ally-rival. However, he struggles with his humanity, questioning whether his abilities come at the cost of his soul. Moreover the cunning strategies of Tokugawa Ieyasu is secretly aided by a Piece of Eden that allows him to see the future. Oda Nobunaga "The Demon King of the Sixth Heaven" serves probably as the central antagonist of the main game. But Hideyoshi is next, as ruthless and power-hungry, he has acquired multiple Pieces of Eden, using them to dominate the battlefield and eliminate rivals. His ultimate goal is to wield the full power of the Isu to rule not only Japan but the world.
@@snowshock8958 I wonder if we see shiao Jung too. As of this moment in the timeline, the Chinese assassins have just rebirth themselves after being purged by the Tigers. The Templar Chinese group perhaps she helped in aiding the Japanese brotherhood. Her story arc took place in the 1530s. Just a few weeks after your grand master Ezio auditor’s death.
@@pinseekergaming4760 Shao Jun is 74 in 1579. She can certainly appear. I've heard of Kotetsu, 69 in 1579, but Ubi probably ignored and erased the already established AC Japan lore. Hattori Hanzo, 37, is definitely an Assassin. Honda Tadakatsu, 31, probably works with the Assassins.

@@jnnnn8051 Although, I am not interested in playing the game, I do care weather the game fails or not. If it succeeds, It will be very bad for the industry!
I doubt Eivor show up given the fact that Valhalla was set in 9th century and Shadows is set in 15th century, but Kassandra is a different story and I too am expecting to see her in this game!
Kassandra's arrival is spurred by an increase in Isu artifacts and Isu hybrid individuals, whose conflicts have shaped this chaotic era in Japanese history. She discovers that the legendary samurai-such as Honda Tadakatsu, and the other Four Heavenly Kings-are not merely renowned samurai but descendants of Isu hybrids. Their incredible abilities and loyalty stem from their unique heritage, making them central to a hidden struggle for Pieces of Eden. The Sengoku civil war, traditionally viewed as a battle for political power, is revealed to be a centuries-long conflict driven by rival factions seeking control of these ancient Eden artifacts. As an immortal who has witnessed countless conflicts, Kassandra is weary of war but compelled to intervene when she learns of the Isu’s influence in Japan. Her role is both investigative and combative, as she unravels the mystery of the hybrid Isu samurai and confronts the Templar-like figures using the artifacts for power.

Only Hytham was mentioned in Aelfred's study and Eivor alone was responsible for the foundations of the new order.
@@DarkoRavens he’s talking about mirage since that was the last time we saw the OOTA chronologically.
I think that's correct, especially since Eivor's actions against the Order led to the foundation of the Templars.

Absolutely correct. Still a solid confirmation is a good thing too imo.
Templars have always been there. Just in origins, Valhalla, mirage, just explain the Templar orgins and history
True, however not in their final form as we're used to see in the classic games!
No they haven’t those are the origins and the order of the ancients similar but different. Just like the hidden ones
Excuse me but where did you get that teaser?
It's from the official Assassin's Creed twitter account.
The facial hair could be cosmetic? Valhalla had different hair and beard styles
This could be the case as well. I really hope they give us multiple options!
