Experience Assassin's Creed Shadows in a whole new and unique way with the Nintendo Switch 2, whether you are at home or on the go! Discover specific features tailored for the Nintendo Switch 2 version, including intuitive touchscreen controls for menus and map navigation but also hideout building.

MASTER THE DEEPEST STEALTH MECHANISMS OF THE SERIES AND FIGHT IN VISCERAL COMBAT
Play as Naoe, a quick-witted shinobi, and use light, sound, and shadows to evade detection. Infiltrate enemy strongholds with many parkour options including the new grappling hook, distract guards with shuriken or smoke bombs, and assassinate your targets with your Hidden Blade. As the samurai Yasuke, use silent bow takedowns or unleash devastating melee combos with your katana or naginata.
Switch between these two heroes to adapt your strategy and experience feudal Japan through two radically different approaches – stealth and strength, shadows and steel.

DEEP-DIVE INTO THE CAPTIVATING WORLD OF ASSASSIN'S CREED SHADOWS
Step into feudal Japan like never before! From majestic castle towns to serene shrines and sweeping countryside, Assassin’s Creed Shadows offers a breathtaking open world where dynamic seasons, shifting weather, and environmental destruction affect your tactical approach.
And, to get full immersion, experience the game through Japanese voiceover.

A GLOBAL HIT
Whether you are a veteran Assassin’s Creed player or new to the franchise, feudal Japan awaits you, with a community of millions of players!

Nintendo Life said:

Outside of the technical ups and downs of its transition to Switch 2, Assassin's Creed Shadows remains a thoroughly enjoyable refresh for the series. Taking its most captivating open world to date and offering two distinct playstyles, it goes a long way toward appeasing current franchise fans while nurturing a new generation of assassins, presenting a huge, intricately crafted depiction of feudal Japan and giving you enjoyable dual protagonists to usher you through it.
Shadows isn't a perfect port, then, but it’s still a colossal achievement and one of the best-looking games on Nintendo’s console.
