In case you had a double-take moment wondering if a female samurai is even a thing... they existed.
I’m now more intrigued by the potential of this game than before. Having two different characters that have very different roles means that players will likely be able switch off between the two like in AC Syndicate. The shinobi/ninja character will likely be more stealth like Evie, while the samurai character will be like Jacob. This also means that there will likely be missions designed for the shinobi only, some for the samurai only, and some that are open to players opting to approach a problem with either character. It will be interesting to return to this style of gameplay after playing the Origins/Odyssey/Valhalla trilogy where we used a single character that could do everything.
Are you getting pumped up for what might be the biggest disappointment of the year? How bad could it be for Ubisoft to incentivize players with the promise of cosmetics by viewing the event on Twitch?
AC Codename Red will probably be like AC Syndicate!
