No more tedious individual grinds – prepare for a seamless and dynamic experience where every moment spent honing your skills benefits both assassins.

Master Your Dual Destinies

Forget juggling separate skill trees and agonizing over which assassin to prioritize. In Shadows, experience points, levels, Mastery Points, and even Knowledge gained through exploration are shared between Naoe and Yasuke. This innovative system allows for unparalleled flexibility. Perfect Naoe's stealthy katana strikes, and Yasuke will be just as deadly when you switch control, ready to unleash his brutal combat skills. This shared journey ensures a fluid narrative and allows you to fully immerse yourself in the world of feudal Japan without worrying about uneven character development. Shared progression doesn't mean identical playstyles. Shadows empowers you to tailor each assassin's abilities through unique Mastery trees. Earn Mastery Points by leveling up and conquering challenging foes, then invest them in skills that complement Naoe's agile shinobi tactics or Yasuke's powerful warrior approach. Dive deep into specific weapon proficiencies, unlock devastating assassination techniques, or enhance your combat prowess. The choice is yours, allowing you to craft two distinct assassins, each a master of their chosen path.

Uncover the Secrets of the Shadows
