Creators can apply for the event
If you're an artist, cosplayer, or performer looking to participate in HoYo FEST 2025, now's the time to apply. Here’s how you can get involved:
Assassin’s Creed Shadows greatly blends the classic Assassin’s Creed stealth with the RPG elements of recent entries. Its dynamic world, seasonal changes, and improved stealth mechanics make exploration a joy, but Yasuke’s restrictive gameplay, overall story, and a half-baked notoriety system hold it back.
