The events of Assassin's Creed Shadows take place in feudal Japan, specifically during the Azuchi-Momoyama period beginning in 1579. The Sengoku period, which saw fierce civil conflict in Japan, comes to an end during this era. The game depicts the historical character Oda Nobunaga at his heyday, after he used arquebus guns to defeat the Takeda clan. Important historical occurrences include Nobunaga's attack on the Iga province in 1581, which involved the Iga ikki, a group renowned for their ninjutsu skills, in a crucial battle.
