The *Assassin’s Creed* series has been experimenting with multiple endings since *Odyssey*, embracing a more RPG-centric approach akin to BioWare's style. If you're curious about whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* follows suit with multiple endings, let's dive into the details.
Does Assassin’s Creed Shadows Have Multiple Endings?
The straightforward answer is no. *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not feature multiple endings.
Although you have the option to select different dialogue choices during interactions with key NPCs, these choices primarily serve to add flavor and depth to your character's personality. They do not influence the overarching narrative or the final outcome of the main story. This means that regardless of your dialogue choices, all players will reach the same conclusion.
The dialogue options do have their merits. For instance, you can shape Naoe into a more empathetic character who seeks non-violent solutions, or you can craft a more aggressive persona who sees violence as the only way forward. While the end result remains consistent, the journey can vary slightly based on these choices. If you prefer to bypass decision-making altogether, you can enable Canon Mode, which removes these choices from the game entirely.
It's also worth mentioning that certain side quests in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* can have different outcomes based on your actions and dialogue with NPCs. These variations do not impact the main storyline, and the rewards differ minimally, but they can lead to some intriguing in-game experiences. If you're not interested in these variations, Canon Mode can also be activated to streamline your gameplay.
We hope this clarifies whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* offers multiple endings. For more insights and tips on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
