🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Unveils Surprising Attack on Titan Crossover for Thanksgiving In a bizarre collaboration that breaks traditional expectations, Ubisoft has announced an digital collaboration between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the popular anime series Attack on Titan. The surprising Thanksgiving event runs from November 25 through December 22, offering complimentary extra story content for Shadows players. Strange Questline Revealed According to the formal statement, "A mysterious encounter pulls protagonists Naoe and Yasuke into a original quest, where hints of forbidden practices and terrifying metamorphoses echo through the darkness." The storyline features a "strangely attired woman named Ada" who charges the characters with journeying into the Crystal Cave—a key location from Attack on Titan—to save her companion from a clandestine cult. The adventure centers on "strange experiments and a monstrous enemy" and is accessible to all players who have unlocked the Yasuke character. Familiar Settings and Changes The preview showcases the Hidden Temple from Attack on Titan recreated as the Crystal Cave. This important location was formerly where the Reiss royal family transmitted the Founding Titan ability through eras. The teaser concludes with a striking sequence showing a character, presumably the hostage, morphing into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Unique Prizes and Bonus Content Players who successfully complete the adventure will obtain an exclusive katana alongside multiple items concealed throughout the area in secret chests. The update also includes purchasable Attack on Titan item packs, featuring: Titan-themed costume for Yasuke Mikasa outfit for Naoe Exclusive arms Survey Corps mount Third Free Story Update This patch also brings the game's third no-cost story episode, titled "The Enigma." This humorous adventure pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they swap signature skills: Naoe reveals a dramatic version of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke acquires non-lethal stealth takedowns. Loyal to its name, "The Mystery" also contains a new environmental puzzle that may finally explain some lingering questions from the main storyline. Earlier Anime Partnerships This represents scarcely the initial time the Assassin's Creed franchise has collaborated with popular anime series. The series previously included a 2020 collaborative story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla informally contained a quest that unmistakably echoed the popular series One-Punch Man.
