Mackenyu will be voicing Gennojo, a central character in the Feudal-Japan inspired Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Described by Ubisoft as a key figure who aids the protagonist in tracking and eliminating a critical target, Gennojo is set to captivate players with his complex personality.

With a heart of gold beneath his rough exterior, Gennojo is committed to bringing justice to the oppressed, particularly the poor and elderly.
*“Gennojo is a charismatic rogue who walks the fine line between charm and deceit,”* Ubisoft stated. *“Despite his roguish nature, he possesses a strong moral compass, making him a compelling ally and adversary.”*While details about when players will encounter Gennojo remain under wraps, it is confirmed that he will play a significant role throughout the game’s missions. Mackenyu expressed enthusiasm about Gennojo’s involvement in the Shinobi League, a mysterious faction within the game. He noted that players will have the opportunity to recruit Gennojo as a companion, adding depth and strategy to their journey through feudal Japan.
