Collaborative Quest: Attack on Titan Invades Assassin's Creed Shadows

Crossovers between unexpected brands have become increasingly common, and the latest is between Assassin's Creed Shadows and Attack on Titan. This collaboration brings a free story quest and paid cosmetics to the game this week, starting November 24, but the Attack on Titan mission content will only be available until December 22. This marks the second crossover for Assassin's Creed Shadows, following the Dead by Daylight collaboration. In addition to these crossovers, Ubisoft has added a non-crossover story mission to Shadows for free since its launch. Ubisoft released its latest financial results last week, citing strong performance in the Assassin's Creed franchise, although specific sales data for Shadows was not provided. However, Assassin's Creed Shadows is currently half-price in Amazon's Black Friday sale.

Collaborative Quests Unleashed: Attack on Titan Meets Assassin's Creed Shadows Revisited

The Assassin's Creed Shadows and Attack on Titan crossover places Naoe and Yasuke in a crystal cave reminiscent of locations from the manga, with Eren's Titan and another colossus appearing in the background. In the new free narrative quest, a mysterious woman named Ada tasks the katana-wielding duo with exploring the crystal cave and rescuing a captive friend from a cult performing strange experiments. Completing quests during this period earns limited rewards, such as a new katana hidden in cave chests. An Attack on Titan theme pack is available for purchase in the in-game store, featuring a Yasuke outfit inspired by Titans, a Mikasa-inspired Naoe costume, and a Survey Corps-themed mount. A third free narrative update, Puzzlement, introduces temporary skill exchanges and new environmental puzzles. This collaboration reflects Ubisoft's strategy of blending their universe with Japanese animation to attract new audiences while providing content for existing fans. The latest free story drop, The Conundrum, allows Naoe and Yasuke to teach each other new combat skills. Update version 1.1.6 delivers improvements to gameplay, graphics, and overall performance, and resolves previously bugged quests and an issue on Xbox platforms.
