Titans in the Shadows: Exploring the Attack on Titan Event in Assassin’s Creed

By Brian k. Neal

Ubisoft is no stranger to blending worlds, but this winter they’ve taken a leap into the extraordinary by bringing the dark fantasy of Attack on Titan into the historical intrigue of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. For a limited time, players can explore a special event that merges the iconic Survey Corps aesthetics with the shadowy world of ninjas and samurai.

In this crossover, you’ll tackle a unique mission that introduces a Titan-Shifter threat into the otherwise historical setting of feudal Japan. Players can earn exclusive gear inspired by Attack on Titan, including a Mikasa Ackerman-themed outfit and weapon skins that bring the spirit of the Scout Regiment into the Assassin’s Creed universe.

The event is as much a celebration of both fandoms as it is a playful experiment in mixing genres. While some fans hoped for full-on Titan battles, many are enjoying the unique aesthetic touches and the chance to experience a different kind of crossover adventure before the event wraps up at the end of December 2025.
