Assassin's Creed Shadows prequel announced


Assassin's Creed Shadows will get an official prequel story, fittingly told by a tie-in manga series.

But rather than simply adapting the story of Ubisoft's upcoming feudal Japan stabathon, the series will instead be set some time prior. "Follow the story of a young Assassin apprentice, as she fights against the growing presence of the Templars order in Japan," reads Ubisoft's description of the manga series. Cover art for the first issue shows a young female Assassin wielding a sword as well as the iconic Hidden Blade.
