Assassin's Creed Shadows features exciting combat mechanics

Despite the controversy generated around the delay of its release date, Assassin's Creed Shadows is still one of the most anticipated games that will arrive early next year. The popularity of the series stays strong even though Ubisoft seems to have a variety of problems that may impact negatively its future releases. In any case, the developer studio in charge of the next Assassin's Creed continues polishing the game in order to deliver the best possible experience to the fans. Also, Ubisoft is releasing additional information about Assassin's Creed Shadows to raise the hype about the game.

Many ways to fight

As we know, Assassin's Creed Shadows will star two main characters who are very different from each other. Naoe is a Shinobi and Yasuke is a samurai. Each of them will have access to unique weapons that allow for a distinct combat style, and that's exactly what Ubisoft has detailed in the latest video for the game, which you can watch right below.

Alongside the video, the developer has released a blog post where it details the combat mechanics that players will have to master in Assassin's Creed Shadows if they want to succeed in their mission. A combination of light, heavy, and posture attacks that take advantage of enemies' vulnerabilities will be at the core of the offensive. Meanwhile dodging and parrying efficiently will be the key to surviving against challenging opponents. All those movements and attacks will be weaved with skills that you will learn as you play in order to create a distinct fighting style that is unique for each character and player.

The combat promises to be dynamic and varied in Assassin's Creed Shadows, which is something that the fans of the series will surely appreciate. Ubisoft is risking a lot with this game given the current situation of the company, but a successful release can greatly contribute to securing a good future for the series.
