Discovering these hideouts is essential for maximizing your in-game experience. Here's how to locate and utilize them effectively.
How to Find Kakurega Hideouts in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, Kakurega Hideouts can be found in various ways. They are often hidden within cities and towns, and you'll receive a notification when you're close to one. Once you see the notification, open your map, locate the Kakurega icon, and purchase it for 800 Mon. For a more targeted approach, you can gather information from NPCs during random encounters in the open world, as they might share rumors about Kakurega locations. Additionally, some Opportunities on contract boards within unlocked Kakurega may reveal new hideout locations.
What Happens If You Upgrade the Kakurega in your Hideout? Answered
Your main base in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* is the Hideout at Tomiko’s residence in Izumi Settsu, where you'll build your first Kakurega as part of the main story in Act 1. Upgrading this Kakurega to its maximum level of 3 is crucial for enhancing your gameplay. At Level 2, you unlock seasonal rumors in each province, which reveal locations of collectibles, treasure, and other side activities. It also allows you to dispatch scouts to reduce your wanted level. Upgrading to Level 3 unlocks additional Kakurega locations across the map and reduces the cost to unlock new Kakurega by 30%, making exploration and expansion more efficient.
