🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Bizarre AoT Crossover for Thanksgiving In a unexpected partnership that breaks usual predictions, Ubisoft has unveiled an virtual crossover between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The unexpected Thanksgiving event runs from November 25 through December 22, including no-cost extra story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Questline Revealed According to the official statement, "A strange meeting pulls heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a new adventure, where hints of forbidden practices and monstrous metamorphoses echo through the darkness." The storyline presents a "oddly dressed woman named Ada" who charges the characters with venturing into the Gemstone Grotto—a important location from Attack on Titan—to save her friend from a secret cult. The mission concentrates on "bizarre experiments and a monstrous enemy" and is available to all players who have acquired the Yasuke character. Recognizable Settings and Metamorphoses The trailer features the Hidden Temple from Attack on Titan reimagined as the Crystal Cave. This significant location was previously where the Reiss royal family handed down the Founding Titan ability through generations. The preview finishes with a powerful moment showing a character, probably the captive, changing into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Unique Prizes and Bonus Features Players who successfully complete the mission will obtain an special katana together with multiple artifacts secreted throughout the area in secret chests. The update also includes in-store Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-based costume for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Special arms Survey Corps steed Newest Free Story Update This patch also brings the game's latest free story episode, titled "The Enigma." This playful adventure pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange characteristic skills: Naoe introduces a theatrical interpretation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns subduing stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "The Enigma" also includes a fresh environmental puzzle that may eventually explain some unanswered questions from the main storyline. Past Japanese Animation Partnerships This signifies hardly the primary time the Assassin's Creed franchise has collaborated with well-known anime properties. The series formerly showcased a 2020 crossover story connecting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Additionally, Valhalla informally included a quest that unmistakably referenced the famous series One-Punch Man.
