🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Introduces Bizarre AoT Collaboration for Thanksgiving In a bizarre crossover event that challenges traditional expectations, Ubisoft has revealed an in-game partnership between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the renowned anime series Attack on Titan. The unusual Thanksgiving event continues from November 25 through December 22, including complimentary extra story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Adventure Uncovered According to the formal release, "An unusual meeting leads heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a original quest, where rumors of forbidden ceremonies and monstrous transformations resonate through the shadows." The plot presents a "unusually garbed woman named Ada" who charges the characters with journeying into the Gemstone Grotto—a key location from Attack on Titan—to rescue her ally from a clandestine sect. The adventure centers on "peculiar experiments and a fearsome enemy" and is available to all players who have acquired the Yasuke character. Familiar Settings and Changes The trailer features the Underground Chapel from Attack on Titan recreated as the Crystal Cave. This significant location was previously where the Reiss royal family transmitted the Founding Titan ability through generations. The teaser concludes with a dramatic moment showing a character, probably the prisoner, morphing into a Titan that looms over Naoe and Yasuke. Exclusive Prizes and Bonus Material Players who finish the adventure will receive an exclusive katana together with several artifacts hidden throughout the area in concealed chests. The update also contains premium Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-inspired attire for Yasuke Mikasa outfit for Naoe Unique weapons Survey Corps vehicle Latest Free Story Addition This patch also brings the game's latest no-cost story episode, titled "The Mystery." This lighthearted adventure teams Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange signature abilities: Naoe debuts a theatrical version of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns non-fatal stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "The Mystery" also features a fresh environmental puzzle that may eventually shed light on some unanswered questions from the main storyline. Past Anime Crossovers This signifies not the primary time the Assassin's Creed franchise has crossed over with popular anime franchises. The series earlier showcased a 2020 crossover story uniting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla subtly included a quest that obviously echoed the well-known series One-Punch Man.
