About
“Shadows is some of the most fun I’ve had with a stealth game in a decade” —PC Gamer
Play as Naoe, a quick-witted shinobi, and use light, sound, and shadows to evade detection. Infiltrate enemy strongholds with many parkour options including the new grappling hook, distract guards with shuriken or smoke bombs, and assassinate your targets with your Hidden Blade. As the samurai Yasuke, use silent bow takedowns or unleash devastating melee combos with your katana or naginata.
Switch between these two heroes to adapt your strategy and experience feudal Japan through two radically different approaches – stealth and strength, shadows and steel.

These guys are in desperate need of play testers for their games. The quality control is terrible. Just started playing and already in the "brute" fight the mesh is nowhere near the actual border of the arena. You try to dodge roll but the game just stops you 5 feet from the walls from moving so youre being blocked by air from moving and fighting. This seems like simple stuff but too hard for this company to figure out. Most of their titles have this lack on quality control or just any kind of intelligent design. Also the auto save system ruins the game experience and you cannot disable it. After more time playing this should be called get stuck on everything simulator. Also why is basic weapon and fighting abilities trapped behind 60+ hours of progression now I see why theres new game + because thats the only way you can actually enjoy the game. Block, heavy attack, light attack are your only options for an obnoxious amount of time. Zero point in having more than one weapon type for 50+ levels because you cant even get enough mastery points to make the weapons anything but a paper weight. Terrible progression design

Sobald man bei einem boss kampf in himeja ist kommt man nicht weiter weil man alleine gegen 4 gegner kämpfen muss und dich jeder mit 2 hits killt
20/07/2026 mais de uma ano depois... O jogo continua com crash no pc.
Чи то Юбісофт сильно постарався, чи то Японія зіграла свою роль, але це найкрасивіша гра серії! Якось і Ассасінс Крід не відчувається, грається свіжо, навіть трошки по Йотейному.
