🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Introduces Unexpected Attack on Titan Event for Thanksgiving In a bizarre partnership that breaks traditional predictions, the game developer has announced an virtual partnership between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The surprising Thanksgiving event operates from November 25 through December 22, providing free additional story content for Shadows players. Strange Questline Uncovered According to the authorized announcement, "A strange meeting leads heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a fresh adventure, where hints of forbidden ceremonies and monstrous transformations echo through the shadows." The storyline introduces a "oddly garbed woman named Ada" who charges the duo with journeying into the Crystalline Cavern—a key location from Attack on Titan—to rescue her friend from a hidden sect. The questline centers on "strange tests and a terrifying foe" and is available to all players who have unlocked the Yasuke character. Recognizable Settings and Changes The teaser highlights the Underground Chapel from Attack on Titan redesigned as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was previously where the Reiss royal family passed down the Founding Titan ability through ages. The trailer concludes with a striking scene showing a character, presumably the prisoner, changing into a Titan that towers over Naoe and Yasuke. Exclusive Items and Bonus Content Players who accomplish the mission will acquire an exclusive katana in addition to several items secreted throughout the area in secret chests. The update also features premium Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-themed attire for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Unique arms Survey Corps mount Latest Free Story Content This patch also brings the game's newest no-cost story content, titled "The Mystery." This humorous adventure teams Naoe and Yasuke as they trade distinctive skills: Naoe reveals a performative variation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns non-lethal stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "A Puzzlement" also includes a new environmental puzzle that may ultimately clarify some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Previous Anime Collaborations This marks not the initial time the Assassin's Creed franchise has collaborated with famous anime properties. The series previously featured a 2020 cross-promotional story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Furthermore, Valhalla unofficially featured a quest that unmistakably referenced the well-known series One-Punch Man.
