Exclusive PVC & ABS statue, licensed by Ubisoft, brings Yasuke's adventure to life.

PureArts is back as they are firing up the Animus once again with a brand set of collectibles for Assassin's Creed Shadows. Yasuke, the historical African samurai, has been reimagined as a main protagonist in the upcoming Ubisoft game. Set in feudal Japan, Yasuke is based on the real-life figure who served under Oda Nobunaga. In the game, he is depicted as a powerful warrior navigating the political chaos of the late Sengoku period. Unlike traditional assassins, Yasuke is more of an up-close and personal fighter with direct combat, wielding brute strength and heavy weaponry.

PureArts is now bringing the Assassin's Creed Shadows Yasuke legend to life with an impressive 11" tall statue. He is depicted in his default armor from the game as he draws his katana on a tenshu rooftop. Tons of intricate detail is featured throughout his armor, and PureArts has even added LED elements to the diorama as you sync yourself into the past. The Animus awaits this release, with Shadows Naoe also coming soon, with pre-orders already going live for $119 with a Q4 2025 release.
