The *Assassin’s Creed* series began experimenting with multiple endings in *Odyssey*, embracing a more BioWare-style RPG approach. If you're curious about whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* follows suit, here's what you need to know.
Does Assassin’s Creed Shadows Have Multiple Endings?
The answer is no. *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not feature multiple endings.
Although you have the ability to select various dialogue options during conversations with key NPCs, these choices primarily serve to add flavor to your character's personality. They do not influence the main story's outcome. Consequently, all players will arrive at the same conclusion regardless of their dialogue choices.
The dialogue options do hold value, however. For example, you can shape Naoe into a more empathetic character who prefers non-violent solutions, as opposed to a more aggressive version who sees violence as the only way forward. While the ending remains the same, the journey to get there can vary slightly. If you prefer not to engage with these choices, you can activate Canon Mode, which removes the decision-making element entirely.
It's worth mentioning that certain side quests do offer multiple outcomes based on your actions and dialogue with NPCs. These variations won't impact the main story and the differences in rewards are minor, but they can lead to some intriguing gameplay moments. Again, you can opt out of these decisions by enabling Canon Mode.
We hope this clarifies whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* includes multiple endings. For more tips and detailed information about the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
