Singapore’s Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) has rated the latest Assassin's Creed installment, Assassin's Creed Shadows, M18 due to intense violence and suggestive sexual content. Set during Japan's Sengoku period, players control two protagonists: Naoe, a skilled ninja, and Yasuke, a legendary African samurai.
The game boasts a vast open world filled with political intrigue, warfare, and espionage. Combat is brutally realistic, featuring graphic blood effects as players wield katanas, kanabō, spears, and other traditional Japanese weapons. Yasuke's fighting style, in particular, emphasizes decapitations and dismemberments, contributing to the game's gritty atmosphere.
Cinematic sequences enhance the somber tone, depicting severed heads, blood-soaked corpses, and even a scene of a rolling head after an execution. These elements contribute to the game's dark aesthetic and narrative depth.
Beyond the violence, Assassin's Creed Shadows explores romantic relationships. Dialogue choices foster emotional connections, leading to intimate moments like kisses and caresses. While these scenes avoid explicit nudity, they transition to a black screen before depicting anything overtly adult.
Assassin's Creed Shadows launches March 20, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Fans can anticipate a mature and engaging experience capturing the chaos of feudal Japan, pushing the boundaries of the series' storytelling. Its blend of historical authenticity, dynamic gameplay, and thought-provoking narratives promises a memorable adventure justifying its M18 rating.
