🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Surprising Attack on Titan Collaboration for Holiday Season In a bizarre collaboration that defies usual forecasts, Ubisoft has unveiled an in-game partnership between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the renowned anime series Attack on Titan. The unusual holiday event operates from November 25 through December 22, providing complimentary additional story content for Shadows players. Mysterious Adventure Revealed According to the official announcement, "A mysterious confrontation pulls characters Naoe and Yasuke into a original adventure, where whispers of forbidden practices and monstrous transformations echo through the shadows." The plot features a "oddly garbed woman named Ada" who charges the characters with traveling into the Crystalline Cavern—a important location from Attack on Titan—to liberate her ally from a clandestine cult. The mission focuses on "bizarre experiments and a terrifying foe" and is accessible to all players who have acquired the Yasuke character. Recognizable Locations and Metamorphoses The teaser highlights the Hidden Temple from Attack on Titan redesigned as the Crystal Cave. This significant location was earlier where the Reiss royal family passed down the Founding Titan ability through ages. The trailer finishes with a powerful scene showing a character, probably the hostage, morphing into a Titan that towers over Naoe and Yasuke. Unique Rewards and Additional Content Players who accomplish the mission will obtain an exclusive katana in addition to several objects hidden throughout the area in concealed chests. The update also includes purchasable Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-inspired attire for Yasuke Mikasa attire for Naoe Unique weapons Survey Corps steed Newest Free Story Addition This patch also brings the game's third free story addition, titled "A Puzzlement." This playful quest pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they trade signature abilities: Naoe debuts a theatrical variation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke acquires non-lethal stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "A Puzzlement" also contains a new environmental puzzle that may eventually clarify some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Earlier Anime Collaborations This signifies hardly the first time the Assassin's Creed franchise has partnered with well-known anime series. The series formerly showcased a 2020 collaborative story connecting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla informally featured a quest that obviously nodded to the famous series One-Punch Man.
