Ubisoft is taking an innovative approach to promote the much-anticipated Assassin's Creed Shadows by teaming up with fitness content creator The Bioneer. This unexpected collaboration has resulted in an official workout program that not only helps fans get in shape but also celebrates the rich history of the Assassin's Creed franchise.
Spanning five weeks (45 days), the program features themed workouts inspired by different chapters in the Assassin's Creed saga. The first week focuses on Assassin training, drawing inspiration from the original game featuring Altair. The second week dives into the world of pirates, referencing Black Flag. The third week channels the spirit of ancient Spartans, as seen in Odyssey. The fourth week embraces the Viking lifestyle, aligning with Valhalla. Finally, the fifth week highlights samurai and ninja, tying into the upcoming Shadows title.
This creative initiative offers fans a unique opportunity to not only prepare physically for the game but also to reconnect with beloved moments from the series through exercise. It's a fresh way to engage with the Assassin's Creed universe, blending fitness with the thrill of the game's historical narratives.
