In the captivating world of *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* set in Feudal Japan, romance blossoms based on the player's choices. Here’s a detailed guide on how to engage in romance and which characters you can woo in this immersive game.
How Does Romance Work in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?
Romance in *Assassin’s Creed* is not a new concept, as fans may recall from *Odyssey* and *Valhalla*. However, *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* introduces a unique approach to romantic engagements. Both protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke, have the opportunity to pursue romantic interests. Players can decide whether these relationships evolve into fleeting flings or deep, lasting bonds, even with canon mode enabled.
How To Romance Another Character in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
It's important to note that selecting a romantic dialogue option once or twice won't automatically commit you to a relationship. Conversely, missing out on early romantic choices can impact future opportunities. For instance, in my playthrough, an early decision not to flirt with Gennojo led to him rejecting Naoe’s later advances. Therefore, keeping your romantic options open, especially during significant interactions, is advisable as you might find a character more appealing later on.
Who Can You Romance in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?
In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, both Naoe and Yasuke have distinct romantic prospects, each tied to their respective storylines. The game offers both heterosexual and same-sex romance options, with some characters seemingly more favored in the narrative. Here are the romantic options available:
- Naoe can romance Gennojo
- Naoe can romance Katsuhime
- Yasuke can romance Lady Oichi
And that concludes the *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* romance guide, detailing who you can romance and how to navigate these relationships within the game.
