🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Surprising Attack on Titan Event for Thanksgiving In a surprising partnership that defies usual forecasts, the game developer has revealed an in-game crossover between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The unexpected holiday event operates from November 25 through December 22, providing no-cost bonus story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Mission Disclosed According to the formal announcement, "A strange meeting pulls heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a original adventure, where rumors of forbidden ceremonies and terrifying transformations reverberate through the shadows." The narrative presents a "unusually dressed woman named Ada" who tasks the pair with traveling into the Crystal Cave—a key location from Attack on Titan—to rescue her friend from a clandestine group. The questline focuses on "bizarre trials and a fearsome foe" and is available to all players who have gained access to the Yasuke character. Familiar Locations and Changes The teaser highlights the Hidden Temple from Attack on Titan recreated as the Crystal Cave. This significant location was earlier where the Reiss royal family transmitted the Founding Titan ability through ages. The teaser concludes with a dramatic scene showing a character, probably the prisoner, changing into a Titan that looms over Naoe and Yasuke. Special Rewards and Extra Content Players who finish the quest will receive an exclusive katana together with numerous items hidden throughout the area in secret chests. The update also includes premium Attack on Titan item packs, offering: Titan-based attire for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Unique weapons Survey Corps mount Newest Free Story Update This update also introduces the game's latest complimentary story content, titled "The Enigma." This humorous quest pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they trade signature techniques: Naoe debuts a dramatic variation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns subduing stealth takedowns. Loyal to its name, "The Enigma" also features a new environmental puzzle that may eventually clarify some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Past Anime Partnerships This signifies not the initial time the Assassin's Creed franchise has collaborated with well-known anime properties. The series formerly featured a 2020 crossover story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Additionally, Valhalla informally contained a quest that clearly nodded to the famous series One-Punch Man.
