In 2007, Ubisoft released the first Assassin's Creed game and set a new standard for stealth gameplay. The series continued to push the stealth genre forward for another eight years until the release of Assassin's Creed: Origins changed everything. AC: Origins started a new trend that saw the series' iconic stealth gameplay steadily pushed aside to make way for a more action-oriented role-playing experience and fans have been divided about this change ever since. Now, the latest announced installment in the series, Assassin's Creed Shadows, is arriving on the scene with a significant change to the franchise's familiar model.
