Ubisoft has released a new video for the next installment in the popular Assassin's Creed series. In it, the developers take a closer look at the game world of "Shadows", which is set in ancient Japan.

"Assassin's Creed Shadows" is being developed under the direction of Ubisoft Québec ("Assassin's Creed Odyssey") and transports players to 16th century Japan. "The country is on a brutal course towards unification and unrest is growing as new coalitions emerge and corrupt foreign influences infiltrate the country," says the publisher.

Open world with varied landscapes
Based on the latest Anvil engine, the game promises a huge open world with a variety of landscapes, from spectacular castle towns and bustling harbors to peaceful shrines that change with the weather and seasons. The developers present the game world in more detail in the video.

"Assassin's Creed Shadows" will be released on November 15 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. The new Assassin's game will also be available for Apple's macOS (on newer Apple Silicon computers) and in various game streaming services - Ubisoft+, Amazon Luna.
