In the immersive world of *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* set in Feudal Japan, players have the opportunity to explore romantic relationships with certain characters, adding depth to the game's narrative. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to engage in romance and who you can pursue in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*.
How Does Romance Work in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?
Romance in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* continues the tradition seen in previous titles like *Odyssey* and *Valhalla*, yet introduces a unique approach. Both protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke, have the chance to engage in romantic relationships. Players can decide whether these relationships will be fleeting or long-lasting, even with canon mode enabled, giving you full control over your character's love life.
How To Romance Another Character in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
It’s important to note that a single romantic choice doesn’t lock you into a relationship, nor does avoiding it close off all opportunities. In my playthrough, a significant decision with Gennojo impacted our relationship when I opted for a non-flirty choice early on but changed course later. Naoe's attempt to deepen the bond was rejected due to this earlier decision. Therefore, keeping your options open during these pivotal moments is key, as future interactions might spark a new romance.
Who Can You Romance in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?
In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, both protagonists have distinct romantic paths. Naoe can pursue relationships with Gennojo and Katsuhime, while Yasuke can romance Lady Oichi. The game offers both heterosexual and same-sex romance options, reflecting varied player preferences. Here are the romantic options available:
- Naoe can romance Gennojo
- Naoe can romance Katsuhime
- Yasuke can romance Lady Oichi
And that wraps up the *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* romance guide, detailing who you can romance and how to do it. Dive into these relationships to enrich your experience in Feudal Japan.
