The expansion is called Claws of Awaji, made by the developers behind Assassin's Creed Mirage. Here, protagonists Yasuke and Naoe travel to the island of Awaji beyond Osaka Bay. A new enemy called the Sanzoku Ippa will hunt down Yasuke and Naoe as they try to secure a lost treasure. Naoe also gets a new weapon type--the bo staff.
