Yasuke, one of the dual protagonists in Assassin's Creed Shadows, is bucking an important series tradition - he's not an assassin, Ubisoft doesn't want him to be an assassin, and he doesn't have the abilities that an assassin normally might.

Having spent four hours with Assassin's Creed Shadows, we reckon it's familiar Creeding with a wonderful world, and a dual protag system that just about works.

Yasuke, co-protagonist of the upcoming Assassin's Creed Shadows, is not one of the titular assassins, which means that he'll play a bit different than normal.
