Remember don’t pre order from Ubisoft
I know I know 😭
Don't waste your time bro. They already forgot about how Ubisoft burned them with the last few games.
* remember, don't pre-order at all from any studio
Never will
Same, I want be in Steam with Steam achievements
Nothing says hiding in plain sight then playing as a black dude in feudal japan..
This dude is yasuke its a real historical figure
And we will chose between him and the girl who as more stealth gameplay
@@nkkii5061 LOOOOL Not as portrayed, he was never a samurai just a Nobunagas exotic pet.
@@caesarczech7920 he held the rank of weapon bearer and was noted in multiple battles
@@Agent__Osiris no tf he wasn't, he was literally a retainer that served nobunaga after all the major battles had already occured.
Gonna buy Ghost Of Tsushima on Steam instead.
Don't let Sony treat you like a 2nd class citizen😂
If you're in a country that hasn't had it delisted due to the PSN requirement.
Your mom bought it for me as a thank you for the wild adult time.
@@ohmoe4385instead let Ubisoft treat you like a second class citizen right 😂 what they gonna charge us $150 U.S dollars for this 😅
Most likely gonna be copy and paste from the newer assassin's creed games.
It's funny how you guys get so hyped up over cinematic trailers.
Aint the same time periode
Game in Italy, play as an italian
Game in France, play as Frenchman
Game in Norway, play as norseman
Game set in America, play as native American
Game set in Greece, play as greekman
Game set in Japan, play as a black man.....
Did you miss the part where there's also a Japanese woman, or were you in too much of a hurry to type out this comment and didn't notice?
@@fireaza Maybe you missed the part where in deuteragonist-driven AC games, women are of the same ethnicity as the male protagonist.

Because the two times that happened (Syndicate/Odyssey), the characters were related
The most heroic thing about this trailer is that they left the comments open.
don't worry. that won't last long.

Nope. Next question.
@@intimiderp6580 but why?
Does it have to be male ??
What’s wrong with the kunochi women?
@@snarfwallaby2180 are you okay with Nioh having a white protagonist? Or what about Lara Croft raiding tombs of predominantly brown people's cultures? Or what about AC Odyssey and Valhalla featuring literal gods? You only care about "historical accuracy" at the expense of it featuring POC men or women. 😘
@@intimiderp6580 but why?
1. Makes Japanese Samurai game set in historic Japan.
2. Doesnt include an Asian Male as a main character.
What a joke.
Who cares? I just want the gameplay and story to be good
Out of everything that was wrong with this video THATS what you had a problem with??? Yea you’re cooked smh…
Yup that is my main problem, I also don’t want the main characters of a Mali empire one to be white and Mexican children.
Don’t worry we have Ghost of Tsushima ✋🏽🙂↕️
@@dragonboricua1414 Thankfully
Yasuke should've been an npc,considering that all previous protagonists were not historical characters,this was purely done for esg checkbox
esg?
Plus dude was never a real samurai in history and never fought in any battle his literal job was carrying swords
@@ryanbaker5296well in this game he can be a mole, plus I don't think his "records" are all that extensive, so there's a room to play here.
@@Pitolek1993 Oh yeah i agree but people love to paint it as fact when there really is no evidence of him even being granted samurai status the only argument i see for him being a samurai is that it is never stated he was not one which is dumb argument.
@@ryanbaker5296 don't matter, he is recorded as a retainer, so if he's p Nobunaga's " mascot" he might be privy to information and a perfect mole, wearing a Dö armor and swinging a katana wasn't limited to the samurai class...
Next: Assassins creed Zulu takes place in Zulu Africa and there's a Mexican there for some reason.
You can probably count the # of Mexican MCs in one hand
Nuh-uh, it makes perfect sense because in the 19th century there was this particular Mexican dude in Zulu Africa, therefore he is the perfect cultural representation we're looking for since he's a real historical figure 🤣
Bro doesn’t know about yasuke
@@wapson2176 Wakanda is not real.
This is what keeps you up at night? Judging from your picture, I can see why…
"My grandmother always told me, I don't care what they told you in school, but Yasuke was a samurai."
Copium
@Binasy712 more like an exotic pet for Nobunaga, who collected exotic things...
The joke is going over people's heads
I mean, It's AC... not exactly to be taken as an exact depiction of history, never was. I'm more annoyed by the split gameplay across two characters. If anything I'd be more interested in playing as the female character in a dual role of Onna-musha along the lines of Tomoe-Gonzen and spycraft that goes well with the fantasy of shinobi (or kunoishi in the case of a woman). And while the reunification under Nobunaga is interesting, a slightly later setting under the Tokugawa would have provided a better setting for stealthy backstabbing at high levels of society.
@Binasy712you do know Assassin's Creed isn't history right?
they didn't give a pass not even to an asian man protagonist ahahah
Lgbt s... Is here
So, is that female not the MC? I look this title look like Syndicate with 2 MC
say that one more time, but in english
@@pabloestefet5610you’re right, people want to pretend you only play as the black guy for the narrative.
The main character literally present the mc Japanese protagonist, why do they have to be male? If there was only the female as a playable character and Yasuke an npc would you have a problem then?
0:30 -- The least Japanlish accent I've ever heard
0:47 - The least stoic subtle head nodding gesture any Asian could make
2:08 - The least Japanese ninja outfit I've ever seen
This isn't nitpicking, these are telltale signs of them disregarding the culture. If them can't come up with the best gameplay ever, this will be one of the worst installments of the franchise.
add the least realistic dreadlocks after a battle while wearing a helmet - sustaining those as clean and soft (as depicted) takes a lot of effort
Literally nitpicking

Netflix is proud to bring you in conjunction with Ubisoft the true story of the Samurai
I don’t care what anybody says. The Samurai were black.
@@alexfilma16 we wuz sahmurais n shieeet
@@alexfilma16wait what
Yeah, Yasuke was a real person. He was an African samurai living in Japan.
@@wjsproductions1784 True his history was erased but some of it has stood the test of time
There is absolutely no record of Yasuke being bestowed Samurai status.
Especially as around that time it was normally hereditary.
I think you're wrong I've came across a few things saying he fought along side the warlord and got the title samurai
Nobody called Eivior was involved in English politics of kings
Remember Leonardo da Vinci's war machines? Guess if there's any record of them being actually built or even planned to use by the Borgias.
Yes, there is.
ahhh, im glad they didnt forget to include an african-japaneese person in this
Cause Yasuke was a real person
Of what this isn’t histrionic accurate to due fact that yasuke wasn’t a samurai he was servant of shogun war lord
Yasuke is an actual historical figure and even japanese devs put him in their games. I agree he isnt necessary for any story being told, but blame the white devs who are following trends without being condescending towards the people who have nothing to do with such a decision.
@@maxlopez7671still the first existing protagonist in a ac game
@@Waynethegunner Doesn't matter, none of the AC protagonists were real people. The point his he's not representative of local culture.
Remember guys Ubisoft stopped caring about the fan base a long time ago and historical inaccuracy is also out the window more than it used to be. Also don't forget that Ubisoft has went downhill ever since syndicate don't forget to not pre-order the game and remember they will probably make the standard edition $70
You mean the series where the first game has a disclaimer saying "There are historical inaccuracies" STILL has historical inaccuracies. They always said dont use the games as a template for what actually happens....
It's set during oda rule, daisuke is an oda retainer which is historically accurate and clearly an insider spy, oda are fighting Takeda at this point. So far it adds up historically as far as I am aware...
@@UnrealAxel27tell me you never played AC1- Syndicate without telling me you never played them
Lol suddenly everybody has become a “Historian”. Funny how accuracy wasn’t a thing when Nioh came out.
@@YacDiesel NIOH was historical fantasy not fiction and is based off a REAL LIFE SAMURAI. Not a servant.

Blawg is mad about a video game 😭🔥‼️💀
@@hououinkyouma3864 Non existent?? 😂 I study ancient history bro. Yall cry about that too.
Ofcourse they wanted to add a black guy in a Japanese game. Yasuke himself is a footnote in the Nobunaga story. Nobunaga was fascinated with the color of his skin and he was kept as a retainer until Nobunaga was betrayed and slain. Yasuke fought part of that battle but surrendered and was imprisoned. Not much is known about him, but Ubisoft decided to run with it anyways. What a joke
Stay mad
You're telling me the game that makes sci-fi stories from real history, saw an obscure figure I'm history and wanted to make a sci-fi story about them? It's almost like it makes for an interesting character
Drop those sources, big guy.
Please, should go wear your big boy pants at least now. William Adams (Miura Anjin) was an actual samurai, and if they had made the character based on him, you guys would cry big time regarding culture appropriation and stuff. The left is clearly dumb. It was clearly stated in Wikipedia too, until the left came in and made an edit. Go ahead and check the log and the edits there.
bro, the second game put Machiavel and DaVinci amongst people against the church. AC is not historically accurate
Why is barely anyone talking about how the ninja woman was using the same hidden blade model Connor has??
who tf remembers ac3 that well?
I screamed when I was that lol
@@simen30 I do lots of research for my DND campaigns lol
I flipped out when i saw that, im so hyped
Well, Connor rope dart was used by a Japanese assassin, so it dont surprise me that they have the same hidden blade
It's a good life we lead brother may it never change the microtransactions in our games
And may it never change us ✌️
And may our greed never change us..
The main character may steal those transactions lol
People have been wanting Japan since AC3. Like all AC trailers this looks fantastic. BUT we’ll only know how good this game can be with GAMEPLAY
And the fact it HAS some vibes towards AC3, especially near the end makes me hyped, and also because of the kunoichi’s hidden blade
Im half expecting it to be tsushima esque but stealth is Tenchu inspired in its gameplay
it's going to be a copy/paste of past games with one or two tweaks but with new assets
they industrialized those AC games for their cashflow
@@DIP_BUH1207 I like they show her fighting with specifically Connor style blades. Hopefully this means RPG combat is GONE and we can get back to similarly appropriate AC3 combat
They have been solid in their gameplay. I’m not worried at all.
Of course they were going to put the black samurai in the game
The funny thing is the real Yasuke was not even a real samurai just something people like to say nowadays
@@ryanbaker5296It sounds like youre just saying this to undermine it because everywhere I researched, he was identified to have been given the samurai title and its benefits
@@atelierbagur3831 Well that's just not true Yasuke was a real person, he did exist, he was of African descent and he was put into the service of Oda Nobunaga. This is fact, and is not disputed.
What is not fact are all the revisionist stories of Yasuke as a great warrior, as having been awarded Samurai status, and earning respect of the Japanese people and other Damiyo that he encountered in the service of the Oda.
It's fine to push him as this in fiction but in reality it was just not the case
@@atelierbagur3831That's not true.
A black samurai in the age of isolationist Japan allowed to ascend to the honor of samurai? Do you know nothing of history and just parrot lies?
Your ignorance knows no bounds
Who cares… don’t play it if you don’t like it. 🥱
I'm japanese and this is a slap in the face of my culture.Here is the yin & the yang ☯️ If a japanese gaming developer made a black panther video game and replaced the black panther with a Asian character.What would happen ?
Agreed, the west will trample every other culture but god forbid a non black character in an african setting.
They don't give a huge F on any other cultures.
Naw they would definitely make him white! 😂😂😂 come on We all know that!!!
Naw But i would be waayyy more interested in a Japanese black panther game then a western developed bp game… well as long as it ain’t a souls-like
Yasuke was black n real life 💀
The Japanese protagonist still exists, you're not Japanese, if you were you wouldn't bother with Yasuke who is a character already well known in Japanese media.
It's sad that ppl can still be tempted to pre-order a game from seeing 1 gameplay-less cinematic trailer.
Maybe because some people are just die hard fans who like all of the Assassin's creed games
Sorry I’m not broke?
@@iamanom Found the corpo account.
@iamanom it's not about our money, it's about a company like ubisoft seeing a significant rise in pre-orders after a single cinematic trailer. Even I who buy ubisoft's games (including Assassins Creed games) won't send the message that trailer hype is... u know what nevermind, do what u want
@@darnellcharles6576all right all right, I get it. I’ll wait
So they’re doing a Jacob (combat)/ Evie (stealth) thing again?
It worked though!
Did it though? I always played as Evie because I thought she was the better assassin @@catboyy
@jonesernater I think it will work. Its a good split gameplay wise.
I prefer stealth and always like finding the hidden way into places.
But my sister doesn't and prefers to run into danger head on. 😂
Yawn.
@@jonesernaterYour questioning if it work because you have a preference. Think about that for a second. 💀
okay but why would the Black Samurai have dreads when something like tat would've been seen as unkempt for a Samurai in the time period?
I don't think Ubisoft is going for historical accuracy here. Hence "black samurai."
I mean, it would've been seen as unkempt, but so would a lot of things about him. He probably just keeps it that way because it's healthy for his type of hair. Even if it makes him stand out more.
@thehousealwayswins8398 well technically the black guy yasuke was an actual person in real life, although there's no actual record he was made a samurai
We wuz kangz n shyt
You do realize yasuke was a real person right?
I am calling it. Ryu Hayabusa, Ayane, Taki and Mai Shiranui as paid DLC
stop 😂 cus y do i actually see that
If not, they'll be mods on PC and I'm all here for it
...... ok, I'm listening.
Give me Rikimaru too 😮
Mai with covered up features is no Mai at all.
Sooo how will Ubisoft scew this one up?
Same team that made odyssey
That’s what I’m thinking
It's in their DNA
@@ChristianK1115the mc was good but the game was filled with to much repetitive content
Yes, next question
It feels like the Frye twins- the female is the stealth while the buff male is the heavy hitter
Yeah a dynamic they already explored like 8 years ago. There's no more creativity in gaming anymore lol
i honestly kinda hope its like that where you swap between the two like in syndicate
But in this case it actually makes sense yasuke was a real person who was a samurai and female shinobi existed so me personally I don’t find much of an issue in that
I got the same vibe and I'm digging it
@@Jmm-jg9es I stuck with Evie the entire game. I felt the more stealthy approach was the way the AC was played originally. Makes me want to go back and play it again. I actually really enjoyed syndicate.
There are many inaccuracies in this video.
As in the whole franchise, because it's fiction based on history
the whole franchise is innacurate
@@Szujhinzu but so far all main characters were fictional so they had fictiional stories. Yasuke is not a fictional protag - writing a story about him is disrespectful to his actual story
@@Extra_Onions I disagree. We know little detail other than a handful of facts. This combined with his distinctive appearance creates an opportunity to make a memorable character, whose story can be enhanced to fit in this fictional version of the history and I see nothing wrong with that as long as it's not belittling the actual historical Yasuke nor trying to rewrite the real world history (which sadly has taken place in recent editions of Yasuke's Wikipedia articles). Him being a protag has little meaning in this sense, since we have secondary characters with far greater background like Leonardo or Charles Lee also treated like that.
@@Szujhinzu have you seen the edit war on Wikipedia where ideologues are trying to edit the facts to make him "definitely a samurai who took part in multiple battles"? They are actively trying to change history to fit fiction. Wakanda is a real country you know...
They dragged Yasuke into this 😭😭
he wasn't a samurai tho
@@dranon0o yes he was. Served under Oda Nobunaga and is one of the first known Foreign Samurai. That's literally why he's historically significant.
Just the excuse they were looking for to make a black man the focus in a japanese game @@AJaydedArtist
@@AJaydedArtist He was not. He served under Oda Nobunaga as a Retainer. He never was a full-fledged Samurai. Still a big achievement tho.
Why can't we just have a japanese man? Guarantee regardless the woman will be the canon character.
*WE WUZ SAMURAIZ N SHIEEET!*
Japan: We actually had Ninjas, a secretive assassin’s order.
Ubisoft: How about a female Samurai and a black Daimyo?
Why is the samurai black with black accent
because he is a japanese nationalist
@@user-bn6lm8ng3vno, it's because he was the only black guy and Ubisoft took every advantage of it.
@@zeblackboi Its ok, sarcasm isnt for the faint of heart.
If they can possibly ruin a cool setting, Ubisoft will find a way.
It rhymes with chews
I refuse to watch an ad for an ad.
Over all famous samurai, Ubisoft chose this infamous one because of his appearance. I wonder what would japanese think about this
They’re probably fine with it. Especially since he’s a real, respected figure in Japanese history.
I'm Japanese American and think Yasuke is super cool, I don't mind them doing this too much bc he was a real guy, but it'd have been cooler to see Miyamoto Musashi as one of the main characters.
ヤスケ？誰それ？
がほとんどの日本人感想であり、ヤスケは資料にほとんど載ってない人物です。
This is terrible.
I will never buy from them.
I'm a fan of Assassin's Creed but the unrealistic setting is unacceptable.
From Tokyo Japan.
Shush, bot.
Respect, as a white Caucasian agree with you 100%. It’s Disrespect to the entire Japan culture
The black guy that kids are calling " the first black samurai " was NOT a samurai. Only lived there for 3 years and was just kept as a retainer by the actual samurais. He fought on one village atack and surrendered.
I feel sorry for asian guys wanting to see themselves represented too just to be race swapped. This is such an insult ffs.
not really
@@DeadPiixxel yes it is an insult. It's all ritualistic humilation from jews with blacks as their golems.

Ubisoft should get accustomed to not owning my money
somehow?
They are ignoring their core customer in favor of Strong Woman+Black Man saves the world- I don't have to watch Ubisoft fumble this 'somehow' I just spent the past 4-minutes watching them fumble this.
Ubisoft: *"pre order now and get to play the game at 80% completition"*
80%? I think you overestimate them greatly.

Gamora: What did it cost?...
Ubisoft: Everything...
Tip for those who already want to get into the samurai mood before Assassin's Creed Shadows launches
In 2023 he released a very good game, called Like A Dragon: Ishin!
The game is set in 1860s Japan during the Bakumatsu era at the end of the Edo period. The protagonist is a historical figure named whose name is Ryoma Sakamoto
I predict that you will have to have wifi to play the game 24/7.
When he said power and vengeance, we saw all the Samurai clans. I'm sensing a live service model with other players acting like Shogun lords.
In a world where GOAT of Tsushima exists, a competing open-world ninja game is going to be a tough sell.
Ok I see what you did there Ubisoft
can this be a stealth based game grounded in realty unlike the last FEW games.
The girl is stealth, the guy is brawl, this is by the Syndicate team where it also had jacob/evie frye twins, having different play styles
Mirage was pretty good though
@@sinister11349no it’s not

Hope this isn't another "choose which character to play as"... but "your choice doesn't really matter because we already decided only one of them is 'cannon' ".
Seems more of a duo thing like swapping between the two but some missions you can have both at once and swap on the go
In the ubisoft store, it says you can choose to approach missions with whichever character you prefer. Although, we'll have to wait to see if that actually applies to main story missions or not.
@@callumnorris3738 ok, so might be more like Assassin's Creed Syndicate was when you switch between playing as the brother or sister.
Yeah, it was Odyssey (i think) where you chose either the male or female to play as (even had the guy on the cover art); but then later for whatever reason said it was the female version that was "cannon".
Don’t worry, most of us will be choosing to play neither character
It's a decent mini movie. Looking forward to actually seeing the game one of these days.

So can you play either the Female or Yasuke or do you switch between one to the other like in Syndicate?
Think it will be a switch sorta thing
@@catboyyI hope not
They said it will be dual protags, so might as well save the cash
I couldn't be paid enough to play this. Ubisoft is done in my book.
Concept looks cool but I can't help but feel that this would have been WAY more impactful like 5 years ago before ghost of tsushima and rise of the ronin along with several other games gave stole it's thunder.
Wait do we play as the woman or the black guy? Second question. How is there a black guy in feudal japan? Not complaining just interested. Is he based on a real figure?
He's probably based on Yasuke, an African man who found his way to Japan back in the 16th century. He served Oda Nobunaga as a retainer. For some reason historical revisionists are trying to paint him as this powerful samurai warrior that partook in numerous battles, when there's no documented case of this ever happening. I guess it looks good for DEI points, like black Queen Cleopatra.
@@thehousealwayswins8398 dei?
Africa is pretty close to Central Europe/Africa. It would be pretty rare for an African person to make it to Japan, but it isn't impossible. And there are a few documented cases of it, such as the other commenter said.
@@opheliarosewood7847 Do you have sources for all of these "documented cases" or just the Yasuke example? Because one guy does not mean hundreds of Africans somehow made it to Japan somehow.
@@thehousealwayswins8398Yasuke was not the only black man to set foot in feudal japan, dude, how else would Nobunaga even know black people existed lol. They often arrived as slaves and bodyguards for Jesuit missionaries, the same as Yasuke. Yasuke is the only documented African man to be taken on as a “retainer” (samurai) for a feudal lord. There’s statues and paintings of african samurais that exist from the era but it’s unclear if they depict Yasuke, someone else, or no one at all.
Mom, look! My ghost of tsushima arrived from TEMU
Guess Ubisoft needed some of Larry Fink's money.
That Armor Looks So Badass 1:38
People here complainig about the historicity of Yasuke when the whole franchise is about Isu Superweapons and Isu reincarnations, i think having a black samurai is the least....

NOT PRE-ORDERING but this is the first AC game I've genuinely been piqued by since the pre-origins games. Will wait for reviews and gameplay.
If we get some gameplay in this game when it releases in Jane 10, I will die if I have to.
When do we get the white warrior in wakanda assasins creed?
Look up Tarzan
@@3rdeyemang nah that was about a Chad white guy who was abandoned in a black environment and absolutely crushed....the exact opposite of what happens if you drop off a black guy in a white environment in the modern world.
@@Iancreed8592 oh so now you're picky
People been asking for a Japan centric AC for years and years. Now it’s just getting played out with the other feudal Japan games
See you and many others say this but fail to provide 5 decent samurai games released in the past 3 years that is not part of a series or a remake. I'm waiting.
Nioh 2, last ronin, ghost of tsushima
Sekiro, like a dragon ishin
@@audi.6106 nioh 2 is part of a series and so is Like a Dragon. Ghost of Tsushima is literally the only one. So try again
@@audi.6106 sekiro was released over 5 years ago so doesn't count. So y'all saying it's overdone just hating and pulling at straws for no reason. The most over done genre are survival games and fantasy themed games
I had my reservations about this game but so far the vibe the game is going for looks crazy and seeing the kanabo hyped me up
"We wuz samowraiz and shieeet!"
- Azzayzin'z Crreeed Wakanda feat. Yasuke from the Mudhut
Ok can’t wait for this
So Ubisoft was like "That Ghost of Tsushima looks good, lets make that"
Nah you will see
Except this will be great value ghost of tsushima
A Japanese establishment in the AC franchise is very fitting, mostly because of Shinobis. I will definitely play this once I hear at least half decent reviews, japanese focus games are true gems and I can't get enough of them.
Not when the protagonist is already a mistake
Ugh. Ubisoft couldn't keep it authentic Japanese could they? They just had to squeeze in the overrated bit player Ysuke into what should be a Japanese only story. Another failure from UbiTripe.
Well if you want a templar vs assassin story then you kinda have to add outside influence. At this time Europe had a lot of impact on the fate of Japan. It is the perfect point in Japanese history to do this.
Dont preorder and remember the crew
if the rumors are true and Ghost 2 will be releasing around the same time as shadows. Shadows isn't going to get many players
Somehow they find a way to shoehorn a Black into this
Yuuuuuup. I have nothing against it, but I can’t wait to see how they plan on making that fit the narrative somehow. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a black samurai.
@@ItsDobbie Well Yasuke is a real person so it is quite easy to fit in to the narrative however people truly think that he was this badass balck samurai which is just false
It's not a shoehorn if there was actual history to it
@@potatoesblink3299 He wasn't a samurai so there is no history to it. I'm sure a balck has set foot on every continent at some point leading up to the last century, but that doesn't make them integral pioneers to the history of the native people of said lands. There is a reason why so many mediums have shoehorned this casting choice over the last decade or so, and much of it has to do with subverting culture.
@@AguyR1401 a black samurai has been a recurring trope in Japanese media.
This isn't some western cultural appropriation
Not every black cast is a bad thing
