Kakurega Hideouts are a game-changing feature in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, offering players a strategic advantage across the vast landscape of Feudal Japan. These hideouts serve as crucial hubs where players can fast travel, replenish supplies, take on new contracts, and manage their allies and scouts. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to locate and utilize these essential spots.
How to Find Kakurega Hideouts in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, discovering Kakurega Hideouts can be both an adventure and a strategic necessity. These hideouts are often cleverly concealed within cities and towns, and you'll receive a notification when you're in close proximity to one. Once you see the prompt indicating a nearby Kakurega, simply open your map, locate its icon, and purchase access for 800 Mon. For those eager to uncover these hideouts proactively, there are two effective methods:
- Rumors: Engage with NPCs you rescue in random encounters across the open world. They might share rumors that reveal the location of a Kakurega Hideout.
- Opportunities: Check the contract boards within already unlocked Kakurega for Opportunities that sometimes point to new hideouts.
What Happens If You Upgrade the Kakurega in Your Hideout?
While exploring Feudal Japan, your primary base will be the Hideout at Tomiko's residence in Izumi Settsu. As part of the main story in Act 1, you'll need to construct a Kakurega here. However, for optimal gameplay, you should prioritize upgrading this Kakurega to its maximum level of 3 as soon as possible.
- Level 2 Upgrade: This upgrade unlocks seasonal rumors in each province, revealing the locations of collectibles, treasures, and other side activities. It also allows you to dispatch scouts to reduce your wanted level.
- Level 3 Upgrade: This significant upgrade not only reveals additional Kakurega locations across the map but also reduces the cost to unlock new Kakurega by 30%. If you've already explored areas where these new hideouts are located, they'll be marked on your map once you've completed this upgrade.
