A Tale of Two Heroes
In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, players will experience the rich tapestry of Japanese history through the eyes of two distinct protagonists:

- Yasuke: The powerful African samurai of historical legend, known for his brutal precision and mastery of a vast arsenal of weapons, including the katana, kanabo, bows, and naginata. Yasuke’s strength and honor drive him to free Japan from its oppressors.
