Ubisoft has released a new in-game event for Assassinâs Creed Shadows, this time crossing over with the Attack on Titan anime series. The limited-time quest runs from November 25 to December 22 and is free for all players. Completing it rewards you with a set of Titan-themed cosmetics.
Of all the franchises Ubisoft could pair with Assassinâs Creed, Attack on Titan wasnât one I saw coming, yet here we are.
Hereâs a quick rundown of what the event includes.
A strange encounter draws Naoe and Yasuke into a new quest, where whispers of forbidden rituals and monstrous transformations echo through the shadows. Guided by a strangely garbed woman named Ada, they venture deep into the enigmatic Crystal Cave to rescue her friend from a mysterious cult. As strange experiments unfold and a monstrous enemy emerges, the duo must rely on their instincts to survive a threat unlike any theyâve faced before. All players who have unlocked Yasuke as a playable character can access this event for free, by heading north-east of Yamashiro where they will be able to find the Quest Giver.
Finishing the quest rewards players with a new katana and various items hidden across the new cave area. The in-game store also adds Attack on Titan cosmetics: a Mikasa-inspired outfit for Naoe, a Titan-themed outfit for Yasuke, themed weapons, and a Survey Corps mount.
The quest is reportedly short, with players saying it takes roughly 15 minutes to complete.

In this quest, Naoe and Yasuke teach each other their signature abilitiesâNaoe learns her own version of Yasukeâs war kick, while Yasuke picks up non-lethal stealth takedowns. The mission also features an environmental puzzle that should appeal to players who follow the gameâs deeper lore.
