The petition to have Assassin’s Creed Shadows cancelled seems to be working, with Ubisoft implying they will make changes to the game before release.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows – why is Ubisoft feeding the trolls? The annoucement that this year’s Assassin’s Creed Shadows will feature black samurai Yasuke as one of its lead characters caused considerable controversy in certain quarters. Earlier this month, a petition from Japanese fans called for the game to be cancelled, because of vaguely described concerns about historical inaccuracy.
’ It’s not at all clear what this is referring to, unless it’s when someone noticed the game’s concept art had accidently used the logo of a reenactment group – but that hardly seems reason for a four-page Twitter apology. The tweet adds ‘All game footage presented so far is in development and the game will keep evolving until launch.’ The Assassin’s Creed Shadows team has a message for our Japanese community. pic.twitter.
