So yea I just have a question, what would be the best approach in create a bump mechanic like Assassin Creed.

Just like in this example where you like push away Npc’s that are in your way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frrGo-QGB88

Thanks.

A simple approach would be to have a few different animations for when the NPCs are shoved, detect when a player collides with an NPC then play one of shoved animations and apply a force to push the NPC away from the player.

Edit: Instead of applying a force to the NPC you could make it walk a short distance.

Do you got a good idea what I could use for checking the colliding with the player, touched or maybe raycast?

A simple demo, the NPCs move away from the player when the players “bumps” into (aka touches) them. You could easily add some animations to make it look better, but I spent way too long on random details which I removed at the end because they overcomplicated the AI.
