Compared to Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, which also featured dual protagonists, Shadows’s protagonists play differently with Yasuke more about being combat-focused and loud, while Naoe does ninja things by keeping to the shadows and applying stealth as much as possible.
Each character will have an array of weapons and skills that complement their play styles. Naoe will have a series of assassinations, equipped with kunai, the notorious hidden blade, and a grappling hook. She’ll be vulnerable compared to Yasuke but her defense is more focused on deflecting blows and dodging incoming attacks. As for Yasuke, he will be able to use Katanas for fast strikes, Kanabo for raw power hits, and Teppo for long range.
Thankfully players can switch characters out in the open world. The only time you can’t switch is when you’re on a unique mission for that particular character.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set to release on November 15, 2024, on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC through the Ubisoft Store, and Epic Games Store.
Guilty Gear Strive is not only a miraculous 60fps port that makes the most minimal of sacrifices, keeping the 2021 masterpiece’s crisp animated effects and characters, but they managed to bring over every one of the game’s features to the aging Nintendo Switch with minimal loading times.
