Ubisoft confirms that Assassin's Creed Shadows is ditching social stealth, a gameplay mechanic that has been a large part of most games in the franchise since it began. As expected, Assassin's Creed Shadows got plenty of time in the spotlight this month, as it was featured in both the Xbox Games Showcase as well as Ubisoft Forward. Assassin's Creed Shadows takes cues from Ubisoft Quebec's 2015 game, where players can pick between two different protagonists, each one with their own specific playstyle. Fans saw this perspective on full display through a deep dive gameplay trailer featuring both characters and what they bring to the table.
