Kakurega Hideouts are an essential new feature in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, enhancing your gameplay experience across Feudal Japan. These hideouts allow you to fast travel, replenish supplies, take on new contracts, and manage your allies and scouts. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to locate them and maximize their potential.
How to Find Kakurega Hideouts in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, discovering Kakurega Hideouts can be done in several ways. Many are cleverly concealed within cities and towns, and you'll receive a notification when you're close to one. Upon seeing the notification, open your map, locate the Kakurega icon, and purchase it for 800 Mon. For a more proactive approach, you can:
- Listen to rumors from NPCs you rescue during random encounters in the open world, which may reveal Kakurega locations.
- Check the Opportunities boards within already unlocked Kakurega, where new hideouts might be highlighted as part of available contracts.
What Happens If You Upgrade the Kakurega in your Hideout? Answered
Your primary 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. It's crucial to upgrade this Kakurega to its maximum level of 3 as soon as possible:
- Level 2 Upgrade: Unlocks seasonal rumors in each province, revealing locations of collectibles, treasures, and other side activities. It also allows you to dispatch scouts to reduce your wanted level.
- Level 3 Upgrade: Reveals additional Kakurega locations across the map and reduces the cost to unlock new Kakurega by 30%. If you've already explored areas with new hideouts, they'll appear on your map for purchase after this upgrade.
