•Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ Yasuke is the latest victim of Gamergate 2.0
60% Informative
A new video game featuring a Black samurai in Assassin ’s Creed Shadows is fueling what some have been calling Gamergate 2.0 .
The resurgence of the Gamergate moniker came earlier this year in reaction to the work of Sweet Baby , a company that advises on characters and storylines.
The company CEO Kim Belair says Sweet Baby didn’t work on the game, but it's ultimately reflective of the misinformation that fuels this campaign.
Assassin ’s Creed Shadows ’ inclusion of Yasuke in the game has sparked controversy.
Yasuke 's history is fascinating and mysterious, but much of the fuss over him has concerned whether he was officially a samurai.
Some insist he may have instead been a retainer, page, squire, or sword-bearer.
Others decrying his inclusion in Shadows said he looked gay.
