  • Assassin's Creed Shadows, formerly known as Assassin's Creed Red, is the newest entry into the Assassin's Creed universe from Ubisoft that is scheduled to release on November 15th! In this reaction video we watch Assassin's Creed Shadows story trailer for the first time and learn that we are headed to Feudal Japan during its unification period and we will get to play as two characters: a Naoe a Shinobi Assassin and Yasuke an iconic Samurai!

    It took me about a year in a half to get through all of the main story assassins creed games. I thought they burned me out of story driven games because nothings gotten my attention. Mariage didn't even get me to excited... Probably because of who the protagonist was.... BUT THIS. Oh man I cannot wait. And this will be the only trailer I watch. I want to be surprised about anything and everything in the game lol. Also, I'm so glad we have the same reaction to hearing Ezio's family theme.

  • @Ghost_R4cc00n

    I am so hype for this game as this might be a theory of mine that this game is influenced by the FX series Shōgun and let us play as two different characters within the same group but different motivations within the characters. Like our Samurai character is based on a real life story that his story is very unique with a crazy story. While our Assassin Character is being a daughter of a real life person. Her story going to be very interesting to play or watch.
    So I hope the game goes well and the musical score be a great addition to this era of music.

    Best part is... this game will be set in 1579. Ezio met a Chinese assassin named Shao Jun at the end of his life. She went on to train many apprentices, one of whom would form the Japanese brotherhood of assassins around 1567. So... I'm hoping we may finally get to see her in a proper context, outside of AC Chronicles. She will most definitely be more of an old mentor figure. And given what I've read so far about gameplay... I am intrigued. As an AC fan, you can count me in on continuing my journey through all of the games and getting more of the story/lore.

    Naoe the female assassin seems based on a Sengoku Japanese Ninja I think her family name was Narita, a daughter of a minor Sengoku Daimyo based in Kanto, one of the most hotly contested area in Japan that eventually became Ieyasu Tokugawa's base and the current capital region of Japan. Yasuke's story usually ends at around the time Nobunaga Oda was assassinated and his fate is unknown but given that he is wearing armor with the family heraldry of the Oda clan seems like he will be still under the service of Nobunaga. During his assassination, Nobunaga only had two retainers with him in the temple he was resting in for the night that is, Yasuke and Mori, so I can't wait to see how this plays out and who is actually the main antagonist. Nobunaga was somewhat a tyrant who sowed chaos in his wake but his goals were also just to put an end to the warring in Japan.

    Here is a true question, How many characters in Assassin's Creed (AC 1 through AC Valhalla) were playable and if any of them were true historical people from the past? The ANSWER is very simple, "None."
    All the "playable" characters in AC 1 through AC Valhalla were all fictional characters, Yasuke was a real historical person who was nothing more than a retainer, not a samurai.
    Yasuke IS A REAL HISTORICAL BLACK MAN WHO WAS NOTHING BUT A RETAINER FOR Oda Nobunaga! "Real Historical Person," Yasuke was and is but a "Retainer." The other Assassin's Creed characters from Assassin's Creed 1 through Assassin's Creed Valhalla are "Fictional," characters that DO NOT EXIST IN ACTUAL HISTORY. Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad (Fictional Character), Ezio Auditore da Firenze (Fictional Character), Captain Edward James Kenway (Fictional Character), Adéwalé (Fictional Character), Aveline de Grandpré (Fictional Character), Bayek of Siwa (Fictional Character), Alexios and Kassandra (Fictional Characters), Basim Ibn Ishaq (Fictional Character), and others that are not based in our past historical history. That is why I always stated to other people that 80% is Fact because of True History for Assassin's Creed Video Games, then there is the 20% Fiction that has "People", Places, Items, and other things that are in the game, are not in our past history. Yasuke "IS A TRUE HISTORICAL PERSON IN JAPAN," NOT A FICTIONAL CHARACTER, you can say, "fantasy," all you want but we all know that Yasuke is a real black man who was a retainer, not trained to use the katana, he cleaned Nobunaga's Katana's and other weapons that is what a retainer does. Sorry to say in true historical words and more true blunt historical words Yasuke was a retainer meaning he was a servant to Oda Nobunaga. Not my words but in actual dictionary definitions, Retainer is a person attached or owing service to a household especially a: SERVANT or b: EMPLOYEE.
    There’s discrepancies in Japanese history about Yasuke and we don’t know he was a retainer or a samurai that was trained. There is basically no actual documentation except for a few stories, but stories can change over time because of different perspectives, different things happening different mindset. Just like for example, that if you say something from a long time ago by word-of-mouth, then someone says it in a different word or words than that word-of-mouth or whatever you said can be different. And we cannot forget about WWII that many things could’ve been lost because of the war, and we may never know from certain items to certain documentations were burnt or been completely annihilated because of the two bombs, but we don’t know. I’m not saying that this can be a true story or not but all we know that he was nothing more than a retainer and that is it. I am sorry to say, but until there is actual more evidence like where is Yasuke Katana sword? Where is it? Does anyone know? Because if you have that sword and it has his name on it and approves that he was a samurai, but in the end, no sword, no proof that he was a samurai.
    Both Greed and WOKE is the message and agenda on both UBISOFT and Sweet Baby Inc. and Black Gamer Girls, and DEI Money. There is no story or the Hero's Journey in this game. Assassin's Creed is just now a "Shadow Shell," of itself and an empty husk. You know if only the Baka writer read Japanese History a lot closer than instead of 2 characters to play, there could be only 1 character to play. There was an opportunity they could have used instead of a fictional black samurai character and in real history he was a retainer not a samurai. If only they read Japanese history carefully and throughly they could have made the only one Japanese Female Assassin Character. Combined both true history and fiction, Japanese women at the time did learn to use a particular weapon called, "Naginata," a Polearm weapon with a curved blade at the top. While the katana sword tends to be associated with male samurai of Japan, a distinctive weapon called the naginata has been traditionally associated with women and female fighters known as onna-bugeisha. This could have been the base of a Japanese Assassin's Creed Story, with a Japanese Woman who learned to use the Naginata and eventually learns the way of the Assassin's Brotherhood.
    Do you know why they don’t want to make a game based in Africa, especially in Assassin’s Creed well because in actual history, many of the warring tribes enslaved their own kind. In about 90% or even 80% of the black population of today, don’t want to admit that their own kind in Africa, their own ancestors in Africa enslaved their own kind. This is why they don’t want to make any Assassin’s Creed games based in Africa. I know they already did Egypt, but I am talking other African countries or places in Africa other than Egypt like South Africa, Algeria, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, and the other 48 African countries.

    Game set in Arabia play an Arab. Game set in Italy, play an Italian. Game set in North American, play a Native American. Game Set in the Caribbean, play a Pirate. Game set in France, play as the French. Game set in England, play as English. Game set in Egypt, play an Egyptian. Game set in Norway and Britain, play as a Norse. Game set in Greece, play as a Greek. Game set in Japan, play as an African?
    Look I get the other protagonist is Japanese, but that is missing the point. Adewole was a great character for AC Freedom, and they could have done a DLC as Yasuke here, or just tell an African AC story in Africa. This is a missed opportunity for sure.
    Also on another note, Yasuke was not historically a Samurai. He was a retainer. He was never giving a fief which all Samurai had. There are not historical documents on Yasuke being a Samurai either. I think the idea played out by pop culture is cool, but just tone deaf, and very woke.

      Game set in Arabia play an Arab that looks like a white american (no issue with that). Game set in Japan play a Japanese AND a black immigrant? No way, just dust him up into a DLC right now or send him back to his continent!
      I didn't know this was an "anti-woke" channel. Straight-up hearting racist reactionary Gamers™.
      Why do you think some commenters feel the need to say that they're fine with playing a black enslaved character in the Caribbean? Maybe because they know they're sounding a lil too racist and are trying to be slick and convince themselves of how _logical_ and _historical_ they are. I'm willing to bet money that these same people didn't get into the same fervour about Valhalla's many historical innacuracies (except when there are women or queer people, of course, that's completely unacceptable). We all know how much they love tatted-up nordic-looking men and what they represent.
      Also, the fact that this channel is a Ubisoft partner is wild (or maybe fitting, knowing their reputation). How can what is essentially an ad be tolerating this type of crap?

      There is little documentation about Yasuke. The Smithsonian Museum's text does not provide any evidence that Yasuke was a samurai. There is a record that Yasuke fought in a building a few kilometers away from Honnoji Temple, but that alone does not make him a samurai. Oda Nobunaga's retainers were not just samurai, but also included his errand boys and servants. In the Honnoji Incident, errand boys and servants were also killed in battle. The definition of a samurai varies by era and region, but simply taking part in wars, accompanying the battlefield, or fighting with a weapon does not make one a samurai.
