Players Want To See Yasuke In Ghost Of Tsushima After Watching Assassin’s Creed Trailer
The newly revealed trailer for the upcoming video game Assassin’s Creed, released on May 15, 2024, features Yasuke as the protagonist.
Some fans appreciate the debut of the first Black Samurai in the RPG set in 16th-century Japan.
As the game’s release date is November 15, fans are growing increasingly eager to experience the Black Samurai Yasuke feature in the Windows version of Ghost of Tsushima released today.
However, not all fans are happy about including Yasuke in Assassin’s Creed and don’t want Ghost Of Tsushima to adapt the same protagonist.
These fans want an Assassin’s Creed protagonist of Japanese descent, similar to the characters in Ghost of Tsushima.
As of now, the developers have not officially stated their decision to include Yasuke in the Windows version of Ghost of Tsushima.
Discussions about Yasuke’s role primarily occur among fans on different platforms, and some even want to boycott Shadows because the Japanese-themed game doesn’t have a protagonist of Japanese origin.
Will Legendary Black Samura Yasuke Make Appearance In Ghost Of Tsushima?
In the real world, Yasuke is an African man who arrived in Japan in 1579. His presence during significant events, such as the Battle of Tenmokuzan, made him a Japanese warrior.
While the game Ghost Of Tsushima is not entirely based on the historical event, it draws inspiration from feudal Japan.
The timeline difference between the era portrayed in Ghost of Tsushima and Yasuke’s actual existence in the real world varies.

Yasuke arrived in Japan during the late 16th century, while the game is set during the Mongol invasion of Tsushima in the 13th century.
Therefore, the chances of Black Summarai Yasuke appearing in Ghost Of Tsushima are probably less.
However, creative liberties could allow for an alternate storyline or spin-off featuring Yasuke in a different context.
