Assassin's Creed Shadows for Nintendo Switch 2 delivers a good way to play Ubisoft's newest Assassin's Creed entry. We compare it to the Steam Deck and PS5 versions in our AC Shadows Switch 2 review.

In Assassin's Creed Shadows, playing as Yasuke and Naoe is as powerful as the Shoguns that ruled during this era of Japan, even if the story doesn't match the gameplay's towering heights.
