Leaked Assassin's Creed Shadows Artbook Surfaces Online
An artbook titled "The Art of Assassin's Creed Shadows" has leaked online, generating significant buzz among fans. The leak, initially spotted on r/GamingLeaksAndRumours, reportedly originated from an unexpected source: a website known for hosting hentai content. While the original source has removed the gallery, archived versions are circulating on other platforms. Ubisoft has been contacted for comment.
The artbook, containing hundreds of pages of concept art, quotes, and development information, offers glimpses into the upcoming Assassin's Creed title. The images showcase potential designs for historical figures, major cities, and weaponry, and may contain plot spoilers. The authenticity of the leak remains unconfirmed, but the images appear genuine.
The leak comes shortly before Assassin's Creed Shadows' revised release date of March 20, 2025, following a delay from its initial 2024 release window. IGN's recent preview event included an interview with game director Charles Benoit, who clarified that the delay primarily focused on polishing the game and enhancing player engagement. Specific adjustments included balancing gameplay and refining the parkour system, which presented unique challenges due to the complexity of Feudal Japanese architecture. Benoit highlighted the intricate roof structures as particularly demanding, requiring specialized code and animations to maintain fluidity in the parkour mechanics.
