Are There Multiple Endings in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?

The *Assassin’s Creed* series has been experimenting with narrative choices and multiple endings since *Odyssey*, embracing an RPG style reminiscent of BioWare's games. 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 freedom to select different dialogue options during interactions with key NPCs, these choices mainly serve to shape your character's personality. They do not influence the overarching narrative or the game's conclusion. This means that all players will experience the same ending, regardless of their dialogue choices.

However, the dialogue options do add depth to your character. For example, you can mold Naoe into a more empathetic figure who seeks non-violent solutions or into a more ruthless assassin who sees violence as the only path. While the end result remains unchanged, the journey to get there can vary slightly. If you prefer a more straightforward experience, you can opt for Canon Mode, which removes these decision-making elements entirely.

It's also worth mentioning that some side quests in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* can have multiple outcomes based on your actions and dialogue choices with NPCs. These variations don't impact the main storyline, and the differences in rewards are minimal, but they can lead to unique and engaging moments in the game. As with the main story, you can bypass these choices by enabling Canon Mode.

Hopefully, this clarifies whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* offers multiple endings to its story. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
