    Standard Assassins Creed - not a bad thing though!

    Standard Assassins Creed fair - great historical representation, but I find the story gets muddled a bit and meanders. Lots of side quest but can feel like a grind at times. If you’re a fan of previous Assassins Creed, you’ll have a good time here.

    Absolutely love the setting. I have played about 8 hours and love the gameplay. Combat feels fluid and meaningful. They changed the way you navigate to detect the enemies. This game is a nice mix of the mechanics I loved from Assassin's Creed. I also love the build a hideout to have a home in the world.

    Purchased Assassin’s Creed Shadows from Best Buy and couldn’t be happier. The ordering process was quick and easy, and the game itself is incredible. The visuals are stunning, the story is engaging, and the dual characters (Naoe and Yasuke) make the gameplay feel fresh and exciting. Loving the return to stealth mechanics too. Definitely worth it if you're a fan of the series or just looking for a great open-world experience. Highly recommend!

    So far so good. I'm only about 3 hours into the game but I love how brutal the combat is and the world is beautiful.

    Good game. About what you'd expect from the next installment of the series. Liked the new Japanese setting. There are negative reviews because of "historic accuracy" and having an African main character (which is historically accurate as there was an African samurai). I say it's a game from a series that's been around a while. You should know what to expect.

    Honestly very happy they went back on what made assassins creed games great. After Mirage i was skeptical on how this one would come out. I have been playing this game nonstop anytime i have free time. All of the additions are great and make the game feel more progressive.

    People love to complain about Ubi’s open world design ethos but this is one of the most beautiful, thoroughly realized worlds I’ve ever experienced. It’s a treat just walking through the (vast!) environment and experiencing weather and seasons that feel real. The game itself isn’t a drastic departure from previous AC games but personally I really enjoy the formula and always feel like I got my money’s worth.

    I don’t really enjoy assassins creeds games, but decided to give it a try since reviews seem good. I really enjoy it. There’s so many things to do and you never really get bored. Combat is sick. My nephew really loves playing it every time he comes over as well

    Assassins creed in Japan is a much needed upgrade

    One of the best assassins creed games in a long time. The stealth, combat are widely improved from the last games. Naoe is a great character but the forced inclusion of a second character makes the story and gameplay clunky. There is still way to much bloat and repetitive gameplay/environments but if you enjoy them that can be a good thing.

    I'm enjoying the game. It has beautiful environments and large areas to explore, the story has kept me interested so far, the combat could be better felt a little floaty and missing impact if you know what I mean. But I'm having a good time and it is kind of relaxing just walking around exploring listening to the winds and rain and looking the world around you...

    A return to greatness for AC series

    After a bit of a slump with AC Valhalla, the series returns triumphantly with Shadows. Wow. If you love Japan and samurai/ninja games you owe it to yourself to try this out. It's beautiful. And it runs amazing on ps5 pro. Please disregard all of the sweaty haters and give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

    By far one of the best AC Games in a while. I normally do not spend over 100 hours on a game but this one I definitely did. it had a great story, graphics and the game play was addictive. if you like open world 3rd person then this is the one you want to jump on in the series for the modern PS5 platform.

    Okay this game is definitely worth the money. A lot to explore, great details in graphics. Missions are decent. I love the way Japanese culture is implemented in this game! If you’re not previously use to AC gameplay, it can feel a little clunky at times but overall doesn’t take away from the experience! Great game so far and I’m 90 hours in lol!

    Game looks amazing on PS5 Pro. Solid story and very non linear.. pick up and go where you want. Run across quest lines and people even if not on that path that you can take out. Like playing as Naoe vs Yasuke. She is an assassin and he's a tank. Different play styles. One negative to me is nothing connecting to present day like previous AC games

    Customer service was excellent. Associate located the one copy of the game in the store and provided info on other items i was interested in. The game play is awesome, the graphics draw you in and the landscapes and environments are a work of art. The incorporation of actual historical figures is both educational and entertaining as well.

    That game is fun from core graphics to mechanics. So far this game has been intense with the magnitude of fights and cinematic events. The one issue I have is the dual main characters as I’m not a fan of that. I wish to play as one character the entire game.

    Surprisingly very fun and very beautiful on the PlayStation 5 Pro. I'm not a fan of the recent Assassin's Creed games at all, so I wasn't sure what to expect here, but I love the more stylish and action-oriented combat, the return of true stealth/assassin gameplay, and the vast open world of Japan.
