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.

It’s the AC we’ve all been wanting. It flows well, the stealth is amazing, amd being able to play how you want makes it 5/5 in my eyes

Its a great game in itself. The story is fantastic along with the visuals and gameplay. They need to work on voice acting and bots and trying to bring the story that is happening in the outside world back together in just the games.

I love the game. While it is very challenging at times, the difficulty can be fairly easy by running away and stealth. Some find the game repetitive from previous versions and I sort of agree but there are elements added that are different and the graphics are beautiful being in Japan so it’s a beautiful game and I’m enjoying it and it looks absolutely stunning on the PlayStation five along with my LG OLED C4 TV.

The most expansive and immersive assassin creed in years. The gameplay aspects and system bring a refreshing but familiar feel to the game, and the game leaves much to be explored and covered among hours of gameplay.

So far it has been a fun experience, and I can not wait to get further into the game. It has been a while since Ive played an assassins creed game, not since Ezio. but I am excited to get back into the franchise.

Another solid title from Ubisoft. I think this game can go toe to toe with ghost of Yōtei, beautiful in its own right.

Great AC game. Finally in Japan! 2 different play styles. Swap freely most of the time between the 2. Really shines on PS5 pro.
