10 Times Main Characters Killed Each Other

10. Shay Cormac Killed Adéwalé - Assassin's Creed: Rogue

Freedom Cry is a standalone DLC for Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag set more than a decade after the main game, in which players take control of Black Flag's fan favourite support character Adéwalé.

Though Adéwalé survives the events of the DLC, he isn't long for this world regardless, as the next game in the series - Assassin's Creed Rogue - sadly has our new lead off him.

Rogue revolves around Shay Patrick Cormac, a former Assassin who turns against the Brotherhood to instead help the Templars hunt them down.

This inevitably leads him into conflict with Adéwalé, who poses quite the threat to the Templars, and so players are eventually tasked with taking him out.

Unlike many games on this list, you actually have to do the dirty work yourself rather than simply observe the fateful moment from the cutscene peanut gallery. 

You need to sneak up on Adéwalé and shank him of your own accord before getting to witness his death cinematic.
