Assassin's Creed Shadows is a slasher movie - and you're the killer
Briefly

Assassin's Creed Shadows aims to appease long-time franchise fans by revisiting the stealth gameplay of the original 2007 title. However, while it brings back iconic elements such as assassination mechanics, modern gaming features including realistic graphics and increased violence have shifted the game's tone towards that of a slasher film. With dual protagonists representing different styles of gameplay, the game reflects the evolution of player tastes and preferences over the years, straddling the line between classic stealth and more aggressive action-oriented experiences.
"Shadows revives the iconic assassination simulator of 2007. However, modern gaming amenities have twisted it into a slasher movie in which you're the killer."
"In 2007, the franchise debuted as a stealth game in which a blade to the esophagus produced the intended result: instant death."
