A user named Danny Stevens has been sharing gameplay clips and impressions of Assassin's Creed Shadows ahead of its March 20 release. Stevens bought a physical PlayStation 5 copy from an unidentified online source. Although the user's account is now locked, their posts, archived on Reddit, include varied content such as menus and combat with the protagonist Naoe. Comments suggest that this could be an old game build. Stevens described the game as reminiscent of "Ghost of Tsushima" but with improved stealth and highlighted its unique depiction of African protagonist Yasuke.
Many commenters on the Reddit post believe this to be an old build of the game, perhaps even from before its most recent delay.
Stevens expressed that Assassin's Creed Shadows feels like "Ghost of Tsushima with better stealth" and evoked nostalgia for earlier Assassin's Creed titles.
Shadows prominently features African protagonist Yasuke's unique position in Japanese society, with characters directly addressing him as "Black man" reflecting the period's context.
The gameplay clips included navigation through the Shadows menus, showcasing various clothing options and combat sequences featuring the main character Naoe.
