Assassin's Creed Shadows

For many years, players have been asking Ubisoft to make Assassin's Creed about Medieval Japan. Their dreams have come true — the action of the new part with the subtitle Shadows unfolds in the Land of the Rising Sun. However, there are still many eras that have never been revealed within the series. This article is dedicated to them.

It so happens that the theme of samurai and ninja in modern cinema and TV series is not particularly popular. The unique culture and the Japanese people’s meticulous attention to historical accuracy deter filmmakers who are used to sacrificing authenticity for the sake of an impressive shot. However, today, March 20, 2025, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is being released—a major new installment in the series about stealthy assassins, dedicated specifically to feudal Japan. This event has naturally sparked renewed public interest in the topic. Gamers and general audiences are looking for books and movies about samurai, ninja, and their cultural peculiarities. We’ve decided to compile our own list of films that we consider among the best on this subject. Since Assassin’s Creed Shadows promises to tell a serious story, we have deliberately excluded comedies like Beverly Hills Ninja. A samurai has no time for smiles—only pain, revenge, and the path.

Some particularly successful virtual entertainment titles leave a lasting impression not only on gamers but also on developers. When an excellent game pushes an entire genre forward, it sometimes sets trends for the industry, inspires studios, and becomes a model for imitation. This article will focus on such projects — those that have influenced many modern games.

The announcement of a console from one of the market leaders is always an exciting event that sparks heated discussions online. Everyone talks about the device's design, specs, and features. However, gamers primarily purchase gaming platforms not for their looks, screen size, or special buttons, but for the games. Unfortunately, there’s little official information about future titles for the Nintendo Switch 2, and it’s unlikely we’ll learn much before April. So, while we wait, let’s analyze the situation and speculate about what we might play on this highly anticipated hybrid console in the coming years.

In this article, we have compiled a list of the most anticipated games on PS4 and PS5. First, we will talk about exclusive projects from Sony, and then smoothly transition to multiplatform.

Firstly, we would like to wish you a Happy New Year and Merry Christmas too, whether it's already here or coming up! It's going to be a big weekend: the best time to relax, shop at sales and play your favourite games. But how did developers and publishers congratulate this year? Now we'll tell and show you.
