Chasing Shadows 3. Weapons
Assassin's Creed Shadows gives players the chance to experience history as two icons of medieval Japan: samurai and shinobi (known today as ninja). In this special series, Matt Lewis and Professor Eric Rath from the University of Kansas take an in-depth look at how these legendary warriors lived and answer the question, what is the difference between samurai and shinobi?
This episode dives into the tools of the trade - from katana to grappling hook, samurai helmets to shinobi smoke bombs, Eric and Matt discuss the weapons used by the warriors of Sengoku Japan.
