🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Bizarre Attack on Titan Collaboration for Holiday Season In a unexpected collaboration that breaks traditional forecasts, Ubisoft has announced an virtual collaboration between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The unexpected holiday event runs from November 25 through December 22, providing complimentary extra story content for Shadows players. Strange Mission Revealed According to the authorized release, "A strange confrontation pulls characters Naoe and Yasuke into a new adventure, where rumors of prohibited practices and monstrous metamorphoses echo through the shadows." The narrative presents a "unusually dressed woman named Ada" who assigns the characters with journeying into the Crystalline Cavern—a significant location from Attack on Titan—to rescue her friend from a secret sect. The adventure focuses on "bizarre experiments and a monstrous adversary" and is open to all players who have gained access to the Yasuke character. Recognizable Settings and Transformations The trailer showcases the Subterranean Sanctuary from Attack on Titan redesigned as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was formerly where the Reiss royal family transmitted the Founding Titan ability through eras. The trailer ends with a striking moment showing a character, probably the hostage, morphing into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Exclusive Items and Bonus Material Players who finish the adventure will receive an unique katana in addition to several artifacts hidden throughout the area in secret chests. The update also contains premium Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-themed outfit for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Unique arms Survey Corps vehicle Third Free Story Addition This update also adds the game's latest complimentary story addition, titled "The Mystery." This playful adventure partners Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange signature abilities: Naoe debuts a performative version of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke masters subduing stealth takedowns. Loyal to its name, "The Enigma" also includes a new environmental puzzle that may ultimately clarify some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Previous Anime Crossovers This signifies hardly the initial time the Assassin's Creed franchise has partnered with popular anime franchises. The series formerly featured a 2020 cross-promotional story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Additionally, Valhalla informally included a quest that clearly echoed the popular series One-Punch Man.
