🔗 Share this article AC Shadows Introduces Bizarre Attack on Titan Collaboration for Thanksgiving In a bizarre collaboration that breaks conventional forecasts, the game developer has unveiled an virtual collaboration between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The unusual Thanksgiving event operates from November 25 through December 22, providing free bonus story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Mission Disclosed According to the formal release, "An unusual confrontation leads protagonists Naoe and Yasuke into a original adventure, where whispers of banned rituals and terrifying changes echo through the obscurity." The plot features a "oddly dressed woman named Ada" who tasks the duo with traveling into the Crystalline Cavern—a significant location from Attack on Titan—to liberate her friend from a secret sect. The questline centers on "bizarre trials and a monstrous adversary" and is open to all players who have acquired the Yasuke character. Iconic Locations and Metamorphoses The trailer showcases the Subterranean Sanctuary from Attack on Titan reimagined as the Crystal Cave. This significant location was previously where the Reiss royal family passed down the Founding Titan ability through ages. The trailer concludes with a dramatic sequence showing a character, presumably the captive, transforming into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Exclusive Rewards and Extra Content Players who accomplish the adventure will receive an special katana in addition to several items secreted throughout the area in hidden chests. The update also contains purchasable Attack on Titan item packs, featuring: Titan-based costume for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Exclusive arms Survey Corps steed Latest Free Story Addition This patch also adds the game's latest complimentary story addition, titled "A Puzzlement." This humorous adventure teams Naoe and Yasuke as they trade distinctive techniques: Naoe introduces a theatrical variation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke masters non-lethal stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "The Mystery" also contains a fresh environmental puzzle that may ultimately explain some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Earlier Anime Crossovers This represents scarcely the initial time the Assassin's Creed franchise has partnered with popular anime series. The series formerly showcased a 2020 collaborative story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla subtly featured a quest that obviously echoed the popular series One-Punch Man.
