The *Assassin’s Creed* series began experimenting with multiple endings in *Odyssey*, embracing a more BioWare-inspired RPG approach. If you're curious about whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* follows suit, here's what you should know:
Does Assassin’s Creed Shadows Have Multiple Endings?
No, *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not have multiple endings.
Although you can select different dialogue options during conversations with key NPCs, these choices primarily influence your character's personality rather than the main story's outcome. This means that all players will reach the same conclusion, regardless of their dialogue choices.
The dialogue options do offer some value, however. For example, you can shape Naoe into a more empathetic character who avoids violence, or a more ruthless version who sees violence as the only solution. While the ending remains the same, the journey to get there can vary slightly. If you prefer to bypass decision-making altogether, you can activate Canon Mode, which removes these choices from the game entirely.
It's also worth noting that some side quests may have multiple outcomes based on your actions and dialogue with NPCs. These variations do not impact the main story and the differences in rewards are minimal, but they can lead to some intriguing moments in the game. If you'd rather not engage with these choices, Canon Mode can also be used to simplify these aspects.
We hope this clarifies whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* offers multiple endings to its story. For more tips and detailed information about the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
