The collaboration adds a new free quest to Assassin’s Creed Shadows. You can start it once you unlock Yasuke as a playable character for the first time. Additionally, you do not need to travel anywhere extra to start this quest. The hideout will be the starting location for this quest after the latest version update.

According to what we know so far, you will also have to master a new unique mechanic to get past the otherworldly threat being faced by Naoe and Yasuke. Once you finish this collaboration quest, you will receive a free trinket alongside a banner. However, that’s not the end of this collaboration. Players who want to pay a little extra can get additional items as part of this collaboration.

The shop will also contain new outfits you can purchase for Naoe and Yasuke. Additionally, you can also get another mount (horse) named Maurice. That is everything that is being added in the new collaboration.
