New Assassin’s Creed Shadows gameplay trailer proves both Naoe and Yasuke can stealth and fight
Assassin's Creed Shadows and its two protagonists, Yasuke and Naoe, are getting ready to debut on March 20. While it’s clear that both characters specialize in different playstyles—Naoe as a stealth expert and Yasuke as a powerhouse for direct combat—the gameplay also shows that they can adapt, allowing players to mix and match their approach regardless of which character they’re using. Assassin's Creed Shadows Naoe and Yasuke gameplay comparison A new AC Shadows gameplay trailer and walkthrough released by Ubisoft on March 6 showcase how the two characters play differently in the same scenario against the same enemies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4zi3e9JNCw The trailer highlights how Naoe is much better suited for stealth, with plenty of tools to eliminate enemies without being seen or triggering alarms. Yasuke, on the other hand, can charge straight into any fight, take on opponents head-on, deal massive damage, break enemy armor, and overpower enemies with sheer force. As shown in the trailer, Naoe excels at one-hit stealth kills, as long as she has the right equipment and tools. Yasuke, however, may need significant adjustments to achieve the same level of stealth. The same contrast applies to open combat. Yasuke is incredibly strong, capable of breaking armor and absorbing a lot of damage before being forced out of a fight. He can dispatch enemies quickly with powerful swings of his weapons. Naoe, on the other hand, struggles more in direct combat. She deals less physical damage and takes longer to defeat enemies in open fights compared to Yasuke. Since Naoe can’t take many hits, her combat style relies more on avoiding and dodging attacks rather than tanking them. She also has other skills that help in combat, but taking down enemies as Naoe will generally take more time than it would with Yasuke. Still, it’s possible to go to open combat with Naoe and stealth with Yasuke in AC Shadows, and that seems to be the point Ubisoft wanted to emphasize with this gameplay reveal. You’ll be able to explore these differences yourself when Assassin's Creed Shadows launches on March 20. However, keep an eye on the game's global release times for each region and platform, as access may vary depending on your location and platform of choice.
