The *Assassin’s Creed* series began experimenting with the concept of multiple endings with *Odyssey*, embracing a more BioWare-inspired RPG approach. If you're curious about whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* follows suit, here's the scoop you need.
Does Assassin’s Creed Shadows Have Multiple Endings?
No, *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not feature multiple endings. Despite the option to select various dialogue choices during interactions with key NPCs, these choices primarily influence the personality of your character rather than the main storyline's outcome. This means that all players will reach the same conclusion, regardless of their dialogue choices.
The dialogue options, however, add depth to your character. For example, you can shape Naoe into a more empathetic figure who seeks alternatives to violence, or a more ruthless assassin who sees violence as the only solution. While the ending remains consistent, your journey to that point can vary slightly based on these choices. If you prefer to bypass this decision-making aspect, you can enable Canon Mode, which removes these choices entirely.
It's worth mentioning that certain side quests in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* do have multiple outcomes based on your actions and dialogue with NPCs. These variations don't impact the main story and the rewards might not differ significantly, but they can lead to some intriguing moments within the game. As with the main dialogue choices, you can opt out of these decisions by activating Canon Mode.
So, to answer your question, *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not offer multiple endings to its main story. For more tips and insights on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
