For the first time in the franchise's history, Assassin's Creed Shadows has introduced two new characters as the protagonist, giving players a double whammy when it comes to gameplay mechanics and combat abilities. With gameplay split between Japanese history's first Black Samurai, Yasuke, and the more traditionally known shinobi, Naoe, Ubisoft has gone all in on making sure both of these warriors come packed with different skill sets, from inside the ring to the lofty reaches of rooftops.
