🔗 Share this article Assassin's Creed Reveals Bizarre AoT Crossover for Holiday Season In a bizarre collaboration that breaks conventional forecasts, the game developer has announced an virtual crossover between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the acclaimed anime series Attack on Titan. The unusual Thanksgiving event runs from November 25 through December 22, including complimentary extra story content for Shadows players. Peculiar Adventure Revealed According to the official statement, "A mysterious encounter leads characters Naoe and Yasuke into a original mission, where hints of prohibited ceremonies and fearsome changes resonate through the shadows." The storyline presents a "strangely garbed woman named Ada" who tasks the duo with venturing into the Crystalline Cavern—a important location from Attack on Titan—to rescue her ally from a clandestine cult. The adventure concentrates on "peculiar experiments and a terrifying adversary" and is open to all players who have gained access to the Yasuke character. Familiar Locations and Metamorphoses The preview showcases the Underground Chapel from Attack on Titan reimagined as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was earlier where the Reiss royal family passed down the Founding Titan ability through generations. The preview finishes with a powerful sequence showing a character, probably the hostage, transforming into a Titan that towers over Naoe and Yasuke. Unique Prizes and Additional Material Players who accomplish the mission will receive an exclusive katana in addition to multiple artifacts hidden throughout the area in secret chests. The update also contains premium Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-themed outfit for Yasuke Mikasa costume for Naoe Exclusive weapons Survey Corps mount Third Free Story Update This update also brings the game's latest no-cost story addition, titled "A Puzzlement." This lighthearted adventure teams Naoe and Yasuke as they swap signature abilities: Naoe reveals a performative version of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke learns non-lethal stealth takedowns. Loyal to its name, "The Mystery" also includes a new environmental puzzle that may eventually explain some lingering questions from the main storyline.

The series previously included a 2020 crossover story linking Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Moreover, Valhalla unofficially contained a quest that clearly referenced the famous series One-Punch Man.
