The riddle Ubisoft shared with fans as part of its marketing campaign for Assassin's Creed Shadows may have been solved within a day of the big reveal.

Assassin's Creed Shadows is the long-awaited installment in the feudal Japan series that players have been waiting for. The big announcement will take place tomorrow, May 15, in a video.

It seems that Ubisoft underestimated the power of the community. According to IGN, players have already cracked the code prematurely and important details of the game may have been revealed.

A teaser released on Monday showed a giant hourglass in Oaska, Japan, with a mysterious code at the bottom that read S89N-29S. The code was quickly cracked by fans who matched the numbers with letters in the English alphabet, deciphering the word "Shinobis."
