On top of this, petitions were filed to cancel the game as many claimed that Yasuke’s depiction was inaccurate and disrespected the ********* culture. Now, fans are wondering if Ubisoft ******* the possibility of creating a game set in ******* during the reign of Mansa Musa or during the Songhai Empire.

The Songhai Empire is known for being the largest state in West ******* in the 15th and 16th centuries. Mansa Musa (Musa I of Mali) was the ruler of the kingdom of Mali from 1312 C.E. to 1337 C.E. and during his reign, Mali was one of the richest kingdoms of *******. Ubisoft has to explore this part of history as well as there’s a lot to cover and will also expose players to rich ******** history.

Ubisoft’s upcoming game, *********’s Creed Shadows, is set in 16th-century Japan towards the end of the Sengoku ******* and features two protagonists: Naoe, a female shinobi, and Yasuke, an ******** samurai inspired by the historical figure of the same name.

While the characters are exciting, a part of the community has criticized Ubisoft for Yasuke’s depiction. They believe that it is inaccurate and disrespects the ********* culture. Despite the criticism, *********’s Creed Shadows has not slowed down at all and is all set to release for PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox Series X/S, macOS, and iPadOS on November 15, 2024.

Many historians have defended Ubisoft for Yasuke’s depiction, so it makes us wonder if the criticism is due to concerns about historical inaccuracies or if it is just racism.

********* fans of the franchise would love to see an ******** *********’s Creed game but the backlash Ubisoft received for Yasuke just shows that the toxic part of the community won’t let it happen. It just comes down to gamers as they will have to unite and eliminate this problem within the community.
