00:04.
00:04Yo ho, yo ho, Maschine will be life for me.
00:10Yes, hi, me again, back with a ton of info for what is going to be the last content drop
00:17for Assassin's Creed Shadows.
00:19All coming your way on June 16th.
00:21First and foremost, our final three story drop is called Black Tides.
00:27Coincidence? You decide.
00:28This new endgame quest is going to be the final chapter in Naoi and Yasuke's story as they take on
00:34a duo of elite ranking Templars known as Black Cross.
00:39They have come to Japan to hunt our two protagonists for all the troubles they have caused but may have
00:44other goals of their own.
00:46They are here because of me.
00:54Let me help you this time.
00:56To access this quest, you must have finished Naoi and Yasuke's main stories as well as completed our two previous
01:03story drops.
01:04That is, a critical encounter where you meet and recruit charming rogue Rufino and a puzzlement where you meet and
01:11recruit the much less charming Kane and Hino.
01:13Note that Claws of Awaji is not mandatory to access this quest, and if you are one of the few
01:19people who have not engaged with the post-launch content, rejoice!
01:22You now have an additional three-chapter story art to get to for the re-landing.
01:28It's because something happens that's gonna...
01:33Hey, stop messing with the lights!
01:36Now, if story isn't your thing, or if you're looking to put all that accumulated gear to good use without
01:42starting New Game Plus for the eighth time,
01:44boy, do we got something for you!
01:47Introducing Domain!
01:49A brand new Animus Bending activity that will put your RPG build-crafting skills to the test as you tackle
01:55five new gameplay arenas across ten difficulty settings.
01:59That's a mouthful.
02:00The harder the difficulty, the more gameplay modifiers are gonna be applied.
02:04What's the goal, you ask?
02:06Push you out of your comfort zone and make you rethink your loadouts because a strategy that works in one
02:11domain might get completely destroyed in the next.
02:14Time to get those mythic and artifact upgrades you've been putting off.
02:17Domains has its own merchant and endgame currency in which you can purchase new endgame gear sets, new game-breaking
02:24engravings,
02:25a whole bunch of weapons that fans might recognize,
02:28and a brand new progression tree in which you can purchase Animus exploits.
02:32That is... a lot of stuff.
02:33And you will need it all if you have any hopes of beating the hardest difficulty settings to get secret
02:39rewards along the way.
02:41Note that none of these items will ever make it into the store, nor the exchange.
02:46These are bragging rights rewards that only the most hardcore players will ever get to wear.
02:51And finally, we got no less than two new life projects coming to the Animus Hub with exclusive rewards to
02:56look forward to.
02:57Perhaps even featuring legacy outfits that some players eager to get back to the Caribbean might be looking forward to.
03:03And with Black Flag Resync now just around the corner, I'm happy to report that these two life projects are
03:10going to be playable across both titles.
03:12Meaning you'll get to unlock a few key items from Japan to carry over into your next adventure.
03:18Even better, because those two life projects exist across two games, that means you get to work towards those rewards
03:25before Black Flag Resync comes out on July 9th.
03:28You get to claim those rewards on day one.
03:31To sum things up, we've got one last story drop to send AC shadows into the sunset.
03:36We have a huge replayability feature for our RPG hardcore players champing at the bits for a challenge.
03:42And we've got some deadly cool rewards.
03:45I can't do it. I can't do it.
03:48And we've got some cool rewards waiting for you in the live projects.
03:52And here we all are at the end of all things.
03:56Really hope you'll enjoy what we've been cooking for this last chapter of Sengoku Era Japan.
04:01Experiencing this adventure alongside each and every one of you has been truly inspiring.
04:06Your thoughts and feedbacks have opened up a conversation between us, developers, and you, the community, paving a more open
04:13future for the Assassin's Creed franchise.
04:17On behalf of everyone here at Ubisoft who made AC shadows possible, we thank you.
04:24Good luck against those black cross, have fun beating the domains, and please enjoy the Caribbean responsibly.
04:30For AC shadows, this is Simon, signing off.
04:35Happy hunting, assassins.
04:38Bye!
