Ubsioft's Assassin's Creed series is known for a lot of things, but most notably its engaging stealth gameplay. While some of the franchise's more recent titles have forgone stealth in exchange for more action-oriented combat, it can't be denied that Assassin's Creed established a mold for stealth gameplay that many other games like it have imitated. Shift Up's action-adventure title Stellar Blade is one game that incorporates stealth mechanics or, rather, "ambush" mechanics and while they don't necessarily imitate Assassin's Creed's well-known formula, it's likely Ubisoft's longstanding franchise had some degree of influence on it.
