The first full gameplay for Assassin's Creed Shadows has been revealed, and it looks every bit as stunning as we could possibly have hoped.
Ubisoft treated us to a deep dive on the latest Assassin's Creed during the end of its Summer Games Fest Ubisoft Forward event. We got a glimpse of brutal, crunchy combat in a gorgeous - and properly massive - open world.
In many ways it looks like business as usual for Assassin's Creed, but the gameplay footage did confirm early doors one feature I know you've all been dying to see. You'll be delighted to know you can in fact meet and pet dogs.
Okay, so I guess this isn't really a game-changer in a world where being able to pet dogs is basically a required feature in every game now, but watching Yasuke approach a hefty Shiba Inu and give him a good scrobble put a smile on my face.

Other highlights from the gameplay footage include some of the best stealth and parkour we've seen from Assassin's Creed in years, and a ton of awesome new toys, including a grappling hook.
You can read our full thoughts on Assassin's Creed Shadows' huge open world and cast of characters over here, if you're interested. I can't hear you saying no so I'm going to imagine/assume it's an enthusiastic yes.
Assassin's Creed Shadows is due for release 15 November 2024.
