The *Assassin’s Creed* series began experimenting with multiple endings in *Odyssey*, embracing a more RPG-focused approach reminiscent of BioWare's style. If you're curious about whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* follows this trend, here's what you should know.
Does Assassin’s Creed Shadows Have Multiple Endings?
The answer is no. *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not feature multiple endings.
Even though you have the ability to select different dialogue options during interactions with key NPCs, these choices primarily serve to add flavor and shape your character's personality. They do not impact the overarching narrative's conclusion, ensuring that all players experience the same ending.
The dialogue options do hold value, however. For example, you can mold Naoe into a more empathetic character who seeks to avoid violence, or a more ruthless version who sees violence as the only solution. While the final outcome remains consistent, the journey to reach it can vary slightly. If you prefer to bypass these choices, you can enable Canon Mode, which eliminates the decision-making process entirely.
It's important to mention that certain side quests do offer multiple outcomes based on your actions and dialogue choices with NPCs. These variations won't affect the main storyline, and the differences in rewards are minimal, but they can lead to intriguing moments within the game. As always, you can opt-out of these choices by activating Canon Mode.
This should clarify whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* includes multiple endings to its story. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
