Assassins Creed Shadows - AC finally (at last) heads to Japan

I really missed the Mercenary system of Odyssey though. I would spend ages just tracking down other mercenaries and taking them down

That's one of the best features of the game! I'm really hoping that Shadows has a cult to hunt down, mercenaries to hunt you and forts to clear.

I can't see why they wouldn't because that would mean they deviated from their standard copy and paste template.
 
Wasn’t planning on buying this but got a copy free with a new CPU so am now looking into it a little more!

I actually really enjoyed Mirage, didn’t bother with Valhalla but did enjoy Odyssey up until it started to really take the **** with ‘travel to this new location 30 actual minutes away with no new fast travel locations near, say hi to one NPC then travel another 20 minutes to another new location with no fast travel location to throw a bird at some children’.

Hoping that at least Shadows is less mindless map chasing, Mirage felt fun to me because it was a ‘smaller’ game and I could explore because I wanted to, not because the game was making me.
 
Yeah but it didn’t have the mercenary system that Odyssey had alongside the Cult targets. I also liked the arena and wars you could instigate

Just seen a review on youtube that states Shadows has Bounty Hunters rather than mercenaries - so like the Phylakes in Origins.

I really enjoyed this system in Origins. I remember getting my butt handed to me and not knowing why until it explained.
