In the tumultuous world of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the chaos and strife that engulf the land provide fertile ground for opportunistic ronin known as the Kabukimono. These colorful outlaws wreak havoc without regard for the law, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. It is up to the Brotherhood, with warriors like Naoe and Yasuke, to restore order and protect the innocent by hunting down these rogue samurai.
Your journey to eliminate the Kabukimono begins in the Settsu region, where you'll meet Shin’nyo, a benevolent priest who entrusts you with the task of quelling the ronin's disturbances. The Kabukimono faction comprises eight distinct targets, each presenting a unique challenge in your quest to bring peace to the land.
How and Where to Find All Kabukimono Members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
While the game encourages exploration and the use of clues to locate these targets, we can streamline your mission with direct guidance on where to find each member of the Kabukimono.
Ghost General
The Ghost General, leader of the ravenous Hungry Ghosts, can be found in the Money Changer District of Sakai, in the southwestern part of the Izumi Settsu region. It's wise to thin out his gang before confronting him directly, or leverage Yasuke’s strength to tip the scales in your favor.
Grave Dancer
The Grave Dancer, head of the Defilers, desecrates the sanctity of the land. To find him, head northeast from Sakai along the main road towards the Sumiyoshi Shrine, south of Osaka. Dispatch him among the graves with your weapon of choice.
Ember
The Ember, leader of the Firebrands, is found north of Sakai in Osaka's Fishermen’s District, near some burned-down buildings. Exercise caution in this flammable environment, and clear out his followers before extinguishing his fiery threat.
Big Sueki
Big Sueki, who leads a gang of sake-loving ronin, can be found at Muko Post Town, just north of Amagasaki Castle in the western part of Izumi Settsu. Use the local bamboo and thickets to approach stealthily and end their revelry.
Chief Cuckoo
Once honorable, Chief Cuckoo now plagues the peasants at Katano Oil Trading in the city of Katano, centrally located in Izumi Settsu. Use the environment to your advantage to bring his reign of terror to an explosive end.
Corrupt Blade, Laughing Man, and Peacock
After dealing with the other members, you'll face the final three at once. Head to Nishinomiya Shrine, west of Amagasaki Castle, and choose to confront them together at Takagi Otsuka Fort in the Harima region. From Kakogawa Estuary, follow the roads northeast to reach the fort. The trio awaits in a courtyard near a medium-sized hut. Utilize the NPCs to your advantage in this challenging battle to eliminate the Kabukimono threat once and for all.
By following these detailed steps, you'll successfully track down and neutralize all Kabukimono members in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. For more tips and guides, be sure to visit The Escapist.
