The *Assassin’s Creed* series began experimenting with multiple endings in *Odyssey*, embracing a more BioWare-style 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?
The answer is no. *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not feature multiple endings.
Although you have the option to select different dialogue choices during interactions with key NPCs, these choices primarily serve to enhance your character's personality rather than impacting the main storyline's outcome. Consequently, all players will reach the same ending, regardless of their dialogue selections.
The dialogue options do offer some value, however. For example, you can shape Naoe to be a more empathetic character who avoids violence, or a more ruthless version who sees violence as the only solution. While the final outcome remains consistent, the journey to that end can vary slightly. If you prefer not to engage with these choices, you can enable Canon Mode to bypass them entirely.
It's worth mentioning that some side quests do have multiple outcomes based on your actions and conversations with NPCs. These variations don't affect the main story and the differences in rewards are minimal, but they can lead to intriguing moments in the game. As with the main dialogue, you can opt out of these choices by activating Canon Mode.
We hope this clarifies whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* offers multiple endings to its story. For more tips and detailed information on the game, make sure to check out The Escapist.
