Viral Japanese DISS TRACK Buries Assassin’s Creed Shadows – BAD for Ubisoft!
A new Japanese pop song titled "Why Yasuke" is causing a stir by mocking Ubisoft and Assassin’s Creed Shadows for featuring Yasuke as a main protagonist and taking liberties with Japanese history. Released on July 6th, the song has already garnered over 912,000 views. The uploader, seemingly using AI, shared a message expressing Japanese anger towards Ubisoft's revision of history and urged listeners to stop the spread of this misinformation.
The song’s English subtitles reveal lyrics like, “Isn’t that Yasuke? Even though it’s Assassin’s Creed, the main Samurai character is Yasuke,” criticizing the game's portrayal. The song calls for a more accurate representation of Japanese history and expresses frustration with Ubisoft’s decisions.
The song further critiques the game's approach to diversity and historical accuracy, with lyrics mentioning the influence of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) and referencing figures like Elon Musk. It suggests that Ubisoft’s alterations to historical narratives are disrespectful and damaging.
In response to the song, Japanese politician Satoshi Hamada signaled he might bring Assassin’s Creed Shadows before the Japanese Diet, Japan’s legislature, for altering the country’s history and promoting Yasuke in a misleading way. Hamada posted on X, requesting opinions and consultations on the matter, indicating a potential investigation into the historical accuracy of Yasuke's portrayal.
What do you think of this song mocking Ubisoft and Assassin’s Creed Shadows? Does it reflect broader concerns about historical accuracy and cultural representation in video games?
