Through its devious machinations, the Templar Order has increased its influence all over Japan, but hope has come to Iga. An Assassin and his young apprentice have come to the birthplace of ninjutsu seeking aid from legendary shinobi like Hattori Hanzo and Momochi Sandayu in their fight for justice.

There is one way to stem the tide of the Templars: one must live in the darkness but serve the light. Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Tales of Iga is the story of the ninja who protect Japan.
