YouTube channel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xbGs4TkJpRo\">Kuriatsu<\/a> obtained the footage, however, revealing it (and the animation) to the world.<\/p>\n<p>The takedown didn&#8217;t make it into the final version of Assassin&#8217;s Creed 3, which was the first of several set in North America, so fans will perhaps forgive Ubisoft since it&#8217;s technically not reusing an animation from a past game. Even if it was, of course, it would almost certainly be recreated from the ground up given the 12 year gap between the two games.<\/p>\n<p>Assassin&#8217;s Creed Shadows was fully revealed in May 2024 as a Japan-set entry where players take control of two protagonists: the stealthy shinobi Naoe and the action-orientated Yasuke, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/who-is-yasuke-assassins-creed-shadows-black-samurai-explained\">who&#8217;s a real figure from Japanese history<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>IGN had a wealth of exclusive content on the reveal, and you can read about all the gameplay changes, story beats, and open-world assassinating coming with Shadows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/assassins-creed-shadows-inside-ubisofts-ambitious-open-world-japan\">in our extensive interview with the development team<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If that&#8217;s not enough, check <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/when-and-where-is-assassins-creed-shadows-set\">our analysis and explanation of where and when Shadows is set<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/assassins-creed-shadows-40-details-you-need-to-know\">40 key details we&#8217;ve learned about the game<\/a>.
