Critical Role’s Robbie Daymond Joins Assassin’s Creed Shadows Next Week

Robbie Daymond of Critical Role is joining the cast of Assassin’s Creed Shadows next week as a new character you can recruit as an ally for Yasuke and Naoe.

Daymond will play Rufino, a character he originally created for an Assassin’s Creed Shadows promotional video. A quick look at the character shows Rufino wearing a Portuguese doublet and sporting a luxurious mustache.

Rufino will arrive as a recruitable ally in the next Shadows update, scheduled for next Wednesday, June 25. This will be the latest free release of additional post-launch story content, following a previous mission that served as a crossover with Dead by Daylight.

Further details are currently unknown.

Okay so imagine: feudal Japan, hidden blades… and Critical Role? Robbie’s in. Luc’s in. You should probably be in too.#ACShadows #CriticalRole #ACxCR pic.twitter.com/guT6cagwE7
