Celebrating the 5th anniversary of Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, standalone expansion Aiko´s Choice releases December 6th 2021

The standalone expansion of the critically acclaimed RTT game Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun continues the story around the beloved group of assassins...

We are thrilled to finally announce the release date of Aiko’s Choice, the long-awaited standalone expansion for the acclaimed real-time tactics game Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. On December 6th 2021, marking the 5th anniversary of the release of the original game, players will once again be sent to the ancient capital of Japan, Edo. There they will accompany the kunoichi adept Aiko and her deadly assassin friends to hunt down the ghosts of her past.

The new trailer sets the mood for Aiko’s Choice by summarizing the events of the main game (potential spoiler):



Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun - Aiko´s Choice focuses on one of the main game's protagonists: the kunoichi adept Aiko. She is a master of camouflage and distracts enemies disguised as a geisha. While Aiko was certain that she left her old life behind, her former sensei, the cunning spymaster Lady Chiyo, reappears from the shadows to challenge her. Together with her friends, a group of deadly assassins, she sets out to hunt down the ghosts of her past.

The expansion features three full-fledged main missions, set in brand-new environments, and three shorter interlude missions.

Like in the main game, you take control of a team of lethal specialists, move in the shadows and sneak past dozens of enemies. Choose your approach wisely when infiltrating hidden forest camps or lively Edo-period towns. Set traps, poison and distract your opponents – or avoid enemy contact altogether. Carefully plan your every move and come up with your own ingenious tactics to vanquish enemies and complete each of the challenging missions to uncover Aiko´s past.

Indeed, defeating your enemies from the shadows is something that Lady Chiyo turned into an art form. She is one of the first who established the teachings of the Kunoichi – the female Shinobi practitioners In fact, she is Aiko's former master and taught her everything she knows! However, Aiko eventually left her old life and her former sensei behind her. But now Lady Chiyo has stepped out of the shadows once again. And she is coming for Aiko and her companions!
