ttitansfan4life Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Don’t really play games much anymore but when a zombie game or AC game come out, I’m always going to buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiltman Posted May 16 Author Share Posted May 16 Looks good for a cinematic setup of the assassins and story. Some info from the site A NEW CREED Live the intertwined stories of Naoe, an adept shinobi Assassin from Iga Province, and Yasuke, the powerful African samurai of historical legend. Against the backdrop of the turbulent late Sengoku period, this remarkable duo will discover their common destiny as they usher in a new era for Japan. BECOME A SHINOBI ASSASSIN As the quick-witted and agile Naoe, use noise, light, and shadows to evade detection as enemies respond to their changing surroundings. Distract guards using kunai, shuriken, and smoke bombs, infiltrate enemy bases with your grappling hook and parkour skills, and assassinate your targets with the hidden blade. BECOME A LEGENDARY SAMURAI As the charismatic samurai Yasuke, strike your foes with brutal precision and power. Use his combat-oriented skills to attack, block, parry, and defeat your enemies. Master the vast arsenal of weapons at your disposal – featuring katana, kanabo, bows, naginata, and more – to free Japan from its oppressors.

Danger Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 A female Main character again? Ubisoft really seems deadset on that I guess. At least this seems more believable than that of Kassandra or Eivor. Really want to know how that other protagonist got there because he's clearly not from Japan. edit: both main characters Also seems they've omitted the Hidden blade, which I'm not a fan of.

Instead just some small dagger. I slowed it down, they completely changed the hidden blade to being some gizmo that's not nearly as cool.

jetsfan4life51 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Looks and sounds awesome. I always enjoy an Assassin's game, but due to lack of time to play I hope it's similar to the recent one and not the bloated Odyssey/Valhalla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really want to know how that other protagonist got there because he's clearly not from Japan. edit: both main characters Also seems they've omitted the Hidden blade, which I'm not a fan of. He’s based on an actual black Samurai, supposedly taken from Africa by the Portuguese as a kid and brought to Japan with them. Been some other media that’s adapted him it seems, they showed an anime. They’ve had some good female assassins, liked Evie and thought Cassandra was better as the protagonist than the antagonist. In that longer video they explain the choice a little more, based it off of different Japanese legends of a female fighter. Her Dad is a real person of the time so she’s like a fictional amalgamation daughter. 7 hours ago, Danger said: Then why didn't they end the trailer with this? Instead just some small dagger.

Like if needed you can turn it into a dagger to fight with. But guess we’ll probably see at the Ubi show in June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
