The surprising Thanksgiving event continues from November 25 through December 22, including no-cost bonus story content for Shadows players. Mysterious Mission Uncovered According to the official announcement, "An unusual confrontation pulls protagonists Naoe and Yasuke into a original mission, where whispers of banned ceremonies and fearsome changes echo through the shadows." The plot features a "strangely dressed woman named Ada" who charges the pair with venturing into the Gemstone Grotto—a key location from Attack on Titan—to save her ally from a hidden sect. The questline centers on "bizarre trials and a monstrous adversary" and is available to all players who have acquired the Yasuke character. Recognizable Places and Metamorphoses The preview features the Subterranean Sanctuary from Attack on Titan redesigned as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was formerly where the Reiss royal family handed down the Founding Titan ability through eras. The trailer ends with a dramatic scene showing a character, likely the captive, changing into a Titan that towers over Naoe and Yasuke. Exclusive Rewards and Bonus Content Players who finish the mission will receive an exclusive katana alongside multiple artifacts concealed throughout the area in concealed chests. The update also features purchasable Attack on Titan item packs, offering: Titan-inspired attire for Yasuke Mikasa outfit for Naoe Special implements Survey Corps steed Latest Free Story Addition This update also brings the game's third no-cost story episode, titled "The Mystery." This humorous adventure pairs Naoe and Yasuke as they swap distinctive abilities: Naoe introduces a performative interpretation of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke masters subduing stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "A Puzzlement" also contains a new environmental puzzle that may eventually shed light on some unresolved questions from the main storyline. Past Japanese Animation Collaborations This represents hardly the first time the Assassin's Creed franchise has crossed over with popular anime franchises. The series previously showcased a 2020 cross-promotional story uniting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Furthermore, Valhalla subtly contained a quest that clearly nodded to the well-known series One-Punch Man.
