The male protagonist was on a slave ship, it was attacked, he was the only survivor, was taken back to Japan, and learned the way of the Samurai ala Tom Cruise. The female character is Japanese.


I saw the leak and laughed so hard because I knew the gamers were going to lose their shite, ,predictably.


If the story is good, this should be great.

You just love sucking that corporate DEI dick, don't you?

The next AC could be centered on sub-Saharan Africa and not a white person to be found, and you'd be crowing about how authentic it is to the history.

You seem really supportive of creating history for the sake of dei

It wouldn't surprise me if Japan bans this game from even being released in that country. Won't matter either way as no one in Japan will be buying it.

I'll play it if it ever hits Game Pass. That's a huge change for me as I have purchased a physical copy of every mainline Assassin's Creed game.

The only black "samurai" in history wasn't a samurai at all and never fought in a battle. LINK

Regardless, playing as a black assassin in Japan makes no sense. He can't blend in. It doesn't fit Assassin's Creed.

He was a retainer, NEVER a Samurai you f'ing ignorant fool. He carried weapons around and was a circus display for the Japanese. This is the we wuzzery that people can't stand. It's a lie perpetuated by insecure black people called afrocentrists. They are culture vultures, plain and simple. I hope this game shits the bed in spectacular fashion.

Dude even you have to admit it’s odd to have the game set in Japan finally only to make the main character not Japanese
