Assassin's Creed Shadows’ 20th March release on PS5 is creeping ever closer, and to hold us over in the meantime, Ubisoft has released a new-gen features trailer that is, admittedly, primarily focused on PC. Still, all platforms will benefit from the features of its formidable Anvil Engine, which allows for impressive environmental destruction and dynamic weather effects that change with the passing seasons.

Shadows will tell the tale of two protagonists, the shinobi Naoe and the samurai Yasuke. Players won't be punished for playing favourites and can switch between the two as often or as little as they like. To achieve full immersion and to properly enter the world of Shadows, a prequel manga is in the works; it is unknown when it will make its way West.
