🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Reveals Surprising Attack on Titan Crossover for Thanksgiving In a surprising collaboration that defies conventional forecasts, Ubisoft has revealed an in-game crossover between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The unusual holiday event operates from November 25 through December 22, providing complimentary additional story content for Shadows players. Strange Adventure Uncovered According to the official announcement, "An unusual meeting pulls protagonists Naoe and Yasuke into a original mission, where hints of forbidden rituals and terrifying metamorphoses reverberate through the darkness." The narrative features a "oddly attired woman named Ada" who tasks the characters with journeying into the Crystal Cave—a significant location from Attack on Titan—to save her companion from a clandestine group. The mission concentrates on "bizarre tests and a fearsome enemy" and is open to all players who have gained access to the Yasuke character. Familiar Places and Transformations The trailer highlights the Hidden Temple from Attack on Titan reimagined as the Crystal Cave. This important location was formerly where the Reiss royal family passed down the Founding Titan ability through generations. The teaser ends with a dramatic scene showing a character, likely the captive, transforming into a Titan that towers over Naoe and Yasuke.

This playful adventure partners Naoe and Yasuke as they trade distinctive techniques: Naoe debuts a theatrical variation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke masters non-lethal stealth takedowns. True to its name, "A Puzzlement" also includes a fresh environmental puzzle that may finally shed light on some unanswered questions from the main storyline. Past Anime Crossovers This marks not the first time the Assassin's Creed franchise has crossed over with famous anime series. The series formerly featured a 2020 crossover story connecting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla unofficially included a quest that clearly nodded to the famous series One-Punch Man.
