Join the Movement: Help Us Reach 50,000 Signatures to Stop Assassin’s Creed Shadows!

After the exciting announcement of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the gaming community is abuzz with discussions about the game, especially focusing on its characters and historical accuracy. A faction of Japanese gamers, unhappy with the portrayal of feudal Japan in the 16th century, has launched a⁤ petition urging the cancellation of the upcoming project.

The petition argues that Ubisoft should halt the development of Assassin’s Creed Shadows due to what they perceive as a “serious disrespect to Japanese culture” through ‌the misrepresentation of samurai. ⁣The petitioners believe that the game misinterprets the role⁣ and nature of samurai in Japanese history. They insist that samurai were ⁢elite warriors and should be depicted as “gokémono” or retainers of the nobility. The petitioners view⁢ this misrepresentation as a significant affront⁣ to Japanese heritage and culture, accusing it of perpetuating “Asian racism.”

The petition demands that Ubisoft immediately pause the release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows and thoroughly study Japanese history and culture to show proper respect. As ‍of now, the petition has gathered over 45,000 signatures out of the ‍targeted 50,000.

Despite the unlikely impact of the ⁣petition on the release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, ‍it will be intriguing⁢ to observe Ubisoft’s⁢ response to this demand.

Just a quick reminder, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set to launch on November 12 for PC and current-gen consoles.
