🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Introduces Surprising Attack on Titan Crossover for Holiday Season In a bizarre crossover event that challenges conventional forecasts, Ubisoft has revealed an virtual crossover between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The unexpected Thanksgiving event runs from November 25 through December 22, including free additional story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Adventure Disclosed According to the authorized release, "A mysterious meeting draws heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a original adventure, where hints of forbidden rituals and fearsome metamorphoses reverberate through the darkness." The narrative introduces a "unusually garbed woman named Ada" who tasks the characters with traveling into the Crystalline Cavern—a important location from Attack on Titan—to save her companion from a hidden cult. The adventure concentrates on "peculiar trials and a monstrous adversary" and is open to all players who have gained access to the Yasuke character. Iconic Settings and Transformations The trailer showcases the Subterranean Sanctuary from Attack on Titan reimagined as the Crystal Cave. This important location was earlier where the Reiss royal family passed down the Founding Titan ability through eras. The teaser ends with a dramatic scene showing a character, likely the captive, morphing into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Special Prizes and Additional Material Players who successfully complete the adventure will obtain an unique katana in addition to numerous items secreted throughout the area in concealed chests. The update also includes purchasable Attack on Titan item packs, featuring: Titan-themed attire for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Unique arms Survey Corps mount Newest Free Story Content This release also brings the game's newest free story addition, titled "A Puzzlement." This humorous quest pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange signature techniques: Naoe debuts a theatrical interpretation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns subduing stealth takedowns. Loyal to its name, "A Puzzlement" also includes a new environmental puzzle that may finally explain some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Past Anime Collaborations This represents not the first time the Assassin's Creed franchise has partnered with popular anime series. The series earlier included a 2020 crossover story uniting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Furthermore, Valhalla unofficially featured a quest that clearly echoed the famous series One-Punch Man.
