🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Surprising Attack on Titan Collaboration for Thanksgiving In a unexpected crossover event that defies usual expectations, Ubisoft has revealed an in-game collaboration between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The surprising holiday event runs from November 25 through December 22, including free additional story content for Shadows players. Mysterious Questline Uncovered According to the official statement, "A mysterious encounter pulls characters Naoe and Yasuke into a original adventure, where hints of banned practices and monstrous metamorphoses echo through the obscurity." The plot presents a "unusually dressed woman named Ada" who tasks the duo with venturing into the Crystalline Cavern—a important location from Attack on Titan—to liberate her friend from a clandestine sect. The adventure concentrates on "bizarre experiments and a terrifying adversary" and is open to all players who have unlocked the Yasuke character. Recognizable Settings and Changes The preview highlights the Subterranean Sanctuary from Attack on Titan redesigned as the Crystal Cave. This important location was previously where the Reiss royal family transmitted the Founding Titan ability through eras. The preview finishes with a dramatic sequence showing a character, presumably the captive, transforming into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Special Rewards and Additional Material Players who accomplish the adventure will acquire an exclusive katana alongside multiple items hidden throughout the area in concealed chests. The update also contains in-store Attack on Titan item packs, featuring: Titan-inspired costume for Yasuke Mikasa attire for Naoe Unique arms Survey Corps mount Third Free Story Addition This patch also introduces the game's latest no-cost story content, titled "A Puzzlement." This humorous adventure partners Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange signature abilities: Naoe reveals a dramatic version of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns subduing stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "The Enigma" also contains a new environmental puzzle that may finally explain some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Earlier Anime Crossovers This marks hardly the first time the Assassin's Creed franchise has collaborated with well-known anime properties. The series earlier included a 2020 collaborative story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Furthermore, Valhalla subtly included a quest that unmistakably echoed the famous series One-Punch Man.
