Assassin’s Creed Shadows Easter Egg Shows Off Developer’s Cat

by

Occasionally, game creators have opportunities to inject some playfulness into their work. While many can do this (we recently discussed the Minecraft Movie’s Herobrine easter egg), it’s a specific cat and its creator in Assassin’s Creed Shadows that currently has our attention.

I am thrilled to introduce myself as Nik Pantis, the passionate production manager behind the scenes at Ubisoft. It’s me, the person who has poured blood, sweat, and tears into crafting the latest masterpiece of the Assassin’s Creed series. And when I’m not immersed in the world of gaming, you can find me cuddling with my beloved feline friend.

Now, meet Ghost. The cat whomst is loved very much.

Living eternally as a specter sounds intriguing! This spectral cat won’t cause any nightly disturbances for quite some time, but it wouldn’t mind the occasional friendly interaction from time to time.

Supporters are reacting just as anticipated – with a user remarking: “This has become my top motivation for playing Shadows.

In the game Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Ghost is depicted as a rare supernatural creature known as a Bakaneko. This elusive entity is not your typical ghost; it takes the form of a friendly cat within the game. The developers suggest that if you manage to bond with this spectral feline, the connection will last a lifetime.

As a dedicated enthusiast, I must admit that details about the elusive ghost cat are hard to come by among the gaming community, but discovering its hidden appearance is quite the thrill, offering a fascinating glimpse into real-world history for those sharp-eyed individuals who manage to locate it.

The Easter Egg Rabbit Hole Of Assassin’s Creed

Easter eggs, a well-established practice in various forms of media, can be found throughout games like Assassin’s Creed and even beyond. Speaking of which, the upcoming Minecraft Movie is brimming with them, and there were a few hidden gems in Assassin’s Creed Mirage as well.

In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the phantom cat isn’t the sole hidden reference; players have also discovered references to Dark Souls and Demon Slayer.

Certain Easter eggs have remained undiscovered for years. Remarkably, one hidden detail in Uncharted 4 subtly references Assassin’s Creed, but it wasn’t detected by players until the creator himself brought attention to it.

Could there be additional hidden gems yet to be discovered in Assassin’s Creed Shadows? It’s quite likely that the creators have left even more delightful surprises for players to discover!

Given that Shadows is still fresh and unexplored for the most part, there might be hidden secrets yet to be unveiled, revealing themselves only when an apt player stumbles upon them and decides to reveal them globally.
