🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Surprising Attack on Titan Collaboration for Thanksgiving In a surprising crossover event that breaks traditional forecasts, the game developer has revealed an virtual partnership between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The unexpected holiday event operates from November 25 through December 22, offering complimentary bonus story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Questline Uncovered According to the formal statement, "A mysterious encounter draws heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a original mission, where hints of banned ceremonies and terrifying transformations echo through the darkness." The storyline presents a "unusually garbed woman named Ada" who tasks the characters with journeying into the Crystal Cave—a key location from Attack on Titan—to save her friend from a clandestine cult. The adventure focuses on "strange trials and a monstrous foe" and is available to all players who have gained access to the Yasuke character. Iconic Locations and Metamorphoses The teaser highlights the Hidden Temple from Attack on Titan reimagined as the Crystal Cave. This important location was previously where the Reiss royal family handed down the Founding Titan ability through ages. The preview ends with a dramatic moment showing a character, probably the captive, transforming into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Unique Prizes and Extra Content Players who finish the quest will receive an unique katana alongside several objects concealed throughout the area in secret chests. The update also contains premium Attack on Titan item packs, offering: Titan-based attire for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Special arms Survey Corps steed Newest Free Story Update This update also adds the game's newest no-cost story addition, titled "The Enigma." This humorous quest teams Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange distinctive techniques: Naoe introduces a performative version of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns non-fatal stealth takedowns. Loyal to its name, "A Puzzlement" also includes a fresh environmental puzzle that may eventually explain some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Earlier Anime Collaborations This represents hardly the first time the Assassin's Creed franchise has crossed over with popular anime properties. The series earlier featured a 2020 collaborative story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Additionally, Valhalla unofficially contained a quest that obviously referenced the well-known series One-Punch Man.
