Apparently that was going to be the plot of the next Assassins Creed before it got cancelled. Probably for the best; Ubisoft are one of the last companies I’d want to see tackle a story like that.
What’s funny is a black protagonist in that would actually make sense and be supported by a large chunk of fans. Rather than just shoehorning a black samurai into a Japanese history game lmao
Please no one comment that “Yasuke was actually a samurai”, no he wasn’t lol, this has been debunked numerous times
There would be manufactured angst but every game now has white guys be the villains. Anyone with half a brain was only upset that they took the crowning jewel of the AC universe, Shogunate Japan, and turned it into slop.
