Assassin's Creed Shadows explores the late Sengoku period of Japan, focusing on themes of revenge, heartbreak, and belonging through the eyes of two protagonists: Naoe, an assassin, and Yasuke, a samurai. The game immerses players in the rich cultural and political landscape of 16th-century Japan, with engaging storytelling that captivates for the entirety of the gameplay. Players navigate various missions, including a unique one where they participate in a traditional tea ceremony, underscoring the blend of action and cultural tradition in the game's narrative.
The narrative of Shadows is its best feature, one that kept me engaged throughout my 35-hour play session, and one that will continue to draw me in as I finish the campaign.
Naoe's story sees her coming to terms with her background as a member of the Iga clan, coupled with her understanding of her role in the Brotherhood.
